Circus of the Dead

There are many ways to die at the Circus of the Dead. You’re invited to witness them all. Mom sent me all the way across the country to the Louisiana bayou to join the circus and help my uncle for the summer. Except there is something not quite right on this swampy cursed island, and after having my fortune told, I can’t leave. I try to escape, but Benny, an all too charming ghost gangster tries to kill me by feeding me to a tiger. Thankfully I’m rescued by Samuel, the incredibly hot ringmaster who can’t be a day over 20.

Mom sent me all the way across the country to the Louisiana bayou to join the circus and help my uncle for the summer. Except, there is something not quite right on this swampy cursed island, and after having my fortune told, I can’t leave. I try to escape, but Benny, an all too charming ghost gangster, tries to kill me by feeding me to a tiger. Thankfully, I’m rescued by Samuel, the incredibly hot ringmaster who can’t be a day over 20. Can he? 

I was so close to going home and then he ruined it all. Now, I have to focus on how to survive because I don’t think I can go home. And to be honest, after a few more nights with Benny, I’m not sure I even want to. Plus, the more I learn about the circus, the more intrigued I become. I discover that I have abilities I couldn’t have even dreamed of, if I’d stayed in California. But, if I’m to survive, I might have to embrace dark magic.

I’ve finally succeeded in doing away with Samuel, but I’m not really in charge of the island at all. In fact, the treachery runs deeper than I ever thought possible, and if I’m not careful, every soul on the island - both living and dead - will want to kill me for what I’ve done unless I discover who is really in charge.

Being dead definitely has its disadvantages. Number one being that I have to wait until the full moon to kick Benny’s ass. What right did he have to kill me? None. Not only that, I was his thirteenth kill, so he’s alive instead. Not for long, if I have my way. With Lorena gone, the island has taken on a life of its own and it’s up to me to destroy it. But doing so will require massive sacrifices. Sacrifices I’m not sure I’m willing to give. But the fate of everyone on the island rests in my hands. Who will live and who will be gone forever?
