Constance Sayers always seems to tune into the things I love best, namely music and magic. With this latest novel, she includes another of my favourite things - the circus. I love the way she describes her setting, even down to the luscious velvet upholstery and decor in the homes and businesses of Kerrigan Falls. On discovering that there is some crossover with Sayers' previous novel, "A Witch In Time", I was delighted and couldn't wait for my buddy-reading pals to catch up so we could discuss! 

Sayers evokes bygone eras beautifully. She also makes accompanying Spotify playlists which are eclectic and excellent! On the strength of the author's note at the end, I have purchased two DVDs, one book and asked for another book as a Christmas gift. I love the concept (and execution) of "The Ladies of the Secret Circus" and Constance Sayers has catapulted high into my list of cherished authors, like Cecile corkscrewing on her trapeze!
