"Welcome to the circus, are you a spectator, or a lion?"

When Maggie Parker is offered a place at Vidre Grammar, located in New York, a school for the children of high society's rich and powerful elite with the security to match, she sees it as a chance to escape her tragic past in Melbourne. Its only when she arrives and is ambushed by spoilt rich kids with their own social hierarchy she realizes that she needs to stay on her toes.

Just when she thinks she's over the worst of it, a memory from her past shows up, with a shadowy childhood and secrets of his own.
But there's something the boy isn't telling her, so its up to Maggie to fix his mistakes, potentially stopping a national crisis in the process. What she thought was going to be a typical "new girl" story becomes anything but, forcing her to decide whether to spectate from the sidelines, or become a lion, putting her life on the line, once again, for those she loves. Priorities change from surviving the school year, to surviving the next twelve hours. But hey, the show must go wrong!
Reminding her that no matter how far you run, you can't escape your past, not for long anyway.
and sometimes, perhaps memories can be people.

So, is Maggie a lion or a spectator? And can she save the circus before it's too late?

Being alone? Check. Being afraid? Check. Being abused? Check times 3. Honestly, my life wasn't this bad before, not until I ended in foster care... SIKE! My life was always bad. From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends. What happens when her only guardian, her dad, is dead? What happens when she finds out that she has five older brothers who are not only strict and demanding, but also protective assholes? More importantly, what happens when she finds out that she was taught lies from the moment she was born?

**** Money. Wealth. Fame. Power. They have it all. But beneath the glitz and glamour lies something far more sinister. Denise never imagined that her past was a lie. That twelve years ago, her life had been stolen from her. Growing up in the slums of Lagos, she learned not to dream-dreams didn't belong to people like her. All she wanted was a way out, a job to pull her and her sister out of poverty. But when the truth comes crashing down, her simple existence is ripped apart. She isn't just another struggling girl-she is the long-lost daughter of one of Nigeria's wealthiest families. And they want her back. Thrown into a world of untold riches, Denise is expected to adjust, to play her part in a life she never knew existed. But not all that glitters is gold. Her twin sister despises her, her new family is drowning in secrets, and the mystery of her kidnapping looms over her like a dark shadow. To make things worse, Bellrich Academy-the elite school she now attends-is a battlefield of ruthless rich teens, social hierarchies, and cruel mind games. And lurking beneath it all? A serial killer picking off students one by one. In this world, failure is not an option. Survival means navigating deadly secrets, deadly people, and deadly truths. Because in the world of the elite, the most dangerous thing Denise can be-is unprepared.
