1910. Born into the world of the circus Lena now stands at a crossroads. With the sudden death
of her father she faces a stark choice: get married or get a job. The fairgrounds are no place
for a woman to go it alone. Until flame-haired Violet known to all as 'the greatest trapeze
artist that ever lived' suggests they do exactly that. With her outspoken ways and her refusal
to marry Violet is as much an outcast as Lena. What do they have to lose? Recruiting new
performers including bareback horse-rider Rosie and acrobat Carmen the four women take charge
of their own show their own finances and their own destinies. But the fairgrounds are a
dangerous place: misogyny is rife violence a continual threat and buried secrets are
beginning to threaten all they hold dear. Together they must forge their own path to freedom.
