|PREQUEL TO BURLAP|
In the 1920's, running a traveling circus proves to be more than Thomas Jensen can handle after his wife, Dorothy, dies in childbirth. Left with a failing troupe, an infant son, and crippling depression, he isn't sure where to turn or how to move on. When the sight of his son growing and needing something more than just him spurs him out of his black abyss, he decides it's time to find a mother figure for the baby.
From the moment Evelyn Bennett glides into his office, requesting a job, Thomas is smitten. But, after marrying her, he discovers a terrifying secret. She thinks she's two people, and only one of her is inherently good.
