_________ Europe, 1938. Even as the daughter of the extraordinary
headlining illusionist, Lena Papadopoulos has never quite found her
place within the World of Wonders - a travelling circus that
traverses the continent in a luxury steam engine. Brilliant and
curious, Lena yearns for the real-world magic of science and
medicine, despite the limitations she feels in her wheelchair. But
when a young French orphan, Alexandre, comes aboard the circus
train, Lena's life is infused with magic and wonder for the first
time. But outside the bright lights of the circus, darkness is
descending on Europe. War is about to shatter Lena's world, and
take away everything she holds dear. And to recover what she has
lost, Lena will have to believe in the impossible. A must-read for
fans of Water for Elephants, The Circus Train will take readers on
a heart-wrenching two-decade journey across a continent in which
great beauty and unimaginable horror live side by side.
