    About this audiobook

    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 twenty. Can he?

    In addition to avoiding the human scorpion, staying away from the big cats, and having trouble figuring out who’s dead and who’s alive, I have to find a way to escape this horror show.

    Will I get out of the circus alive or will I join their army of ghosts and become a murderer myself?
