"As long as she could remember, there had been the Carnival. As long as any of them could remember, except him. No matter how far back she went, it was all she found. Food frying, sawdust and sweat, mingling with the shouting and laughing of human visitors, all blissfully unaware of what night-time would bring. For the Starlit Carnival gained its name for a reason..."
Freya and Rosemary have lived in the Carnival for as long as they can remember. But the Ringmaster is fading away, and things in the Carnival begin going wrong. The girls must ask themselves how far they will truly go to save their family and their home.
