"And so onto Europe, and beyond the old frontier! For there are new markets to explore, new towns to play in... and new worlds to conquer!" It's 1961 and Klondike's Circus is heading across the globe for a much-heralded tour of Europe. The grand scheme is ambitious and full of uncertainties, a giant step into the unknown for Kal Klondike and his star-studded line-up of performers. But after years of success in the US, Klondike and his team believe their circus will be a hit abroad. But, across the Atlantic, the tour is viewed as an invasion, orchestrated by Americans keen to dominate the industry. And Europe's premier promoters have a dastardly plan in place for these unwanted raiders. All the while, as Klondike attempts to navigate a path full of traps and adversaries, his entire project is being watched from afar by an old nemesis with a score to settle - in the worst way possible. Everything is set for a wild ride... but who will come out on top?

"When you're a success, when you're at the top... that's when they come for you. Everybody wants a piece... a piece of the action." It's 1960 and Klondike's Circus is now a major, money-making juggernaut, with TV specials, Las Vegas engagements and all manner of sponsorship and endorsement deals in the pipeline. When the troupe is offered a starring role in a huge circus spectacular involving multiple promotions, boss Kal Klondike feels on top of the world. But that's when the dark shadows start gathering. Sinister, malicious figures, all with a score to settle. And all wanting a slice of his profits. A deadly gangster. A humiliated performer. A madman long thought dead. And, at the head of the table, Klondike's greatest rival, his former mentor and partner. Everybody wants a piece. Nobody is safe. The stage is set...
