Kansas, 1959. FBI Special Agent Michael Travis is despatched to the small town of Seneca Falls to investigate the mysterious death of a man at a travelling show, and is at once plunged into the weird and wonderful world of the Carnival Diablo.Led by the elusive Edgar Doyle, the carnival folk range from the enigmatic to the bizarre, but none of them will give Travis a straight answer to his questions.As Doyle and his companions challenge Travis's unshakeable faith in solid facts and hard evidence, it emerges that this case is not as straightforward as it at first appeared. Can Travis open his mind to a truth that is beyond comprehension? And will he be able to set aside his own beliefs and solve a mystery that threatens to undermine everyone and everything he's ever trusted?
"At a time when crime fiction has become so formulaic, it's a relief to find a book as left-field as this latest offering from RJ Ellory... An intriguing, delightfully unpredictable novel." MAIL ON SUNDAY "He [Ellory} raises interesting questions about society and our fear to question." DAILY EXPRESS "An atmospheric thriller with a gallery of fascinating characters." IRISH INDEPENDENT
