When Jacqueline Argente joins a traveling circus, she is catapulted into a world of secrets and facades, and finds herself up against the Black Hand, a Giant with a vast and powerful network of crime, betrayal and deceit. Vincenszio the Circus-Master wants the mysterious Keys, Gwenhilda North the avaricious Queen wants her nose in everything, or at least her Royal Investigator's, and her son Alexios will either save Jacqueline's life and heart, or become the stumbling block in her quest to find out what exactly is going on in her story. It's all in the reading of the Tarot cards...
