The winter ground cover

The winter ground

by Catriona McPherson

"Bad luck? Bad timing? Or good old-fashioned murder? It is December 15th 1925 in Gilverton, Perthshire. A circus has been installed in the grounds of Benachally Castle for the winter season by its new owners, the Albert Wilsons. Unfirtunately, the circus goers cannot sit in the ringside seats and simply watch the show, for there is more going on in the big top than acrobatics and juggling and, unless puts a stop to it all, death may not be defied for long."--BOOK COVER.
