The world's most glamorous circus is haunted by a mysterious
curse that has endured for decades and follows the show like a
shadow. An unheralded performer seeks to break the spell. Someone
else is displeased.

Shortly before the dawn of the new millennium, a video arrives
at the postbox of internationally acclaimed motorsport journalist,
Trevor Banks. The startling images depict the elite driving talents
of an intriguing racecar driver.
Banks is assigned to investigate the story. As he does so, he
discovers that the talented performer also has attracted the
attention of a psychopathic saboteur. From Northern California's
legendary racetracks to multiple European venues, including the
dazzling jewel that is the Monaco Grand Prix, the story takes the
reader on a wild, unpredictable ride within the dangerous circus
that is Formula One racing.
With an engaging style and a journalist's sharp eye for detail,
David Miller has crafted a compelling drama that hurtles toward its
shocking climax with the purposefulness and hair-raising excitement
of a Formula One racecar as it rockets toward the chequered
flag.
