'Julie's best novel yet' Georgina Moore, bestselling author of The Garnett Girls
Would you choose your sister or the love of your life?

BERLIN, 1926
After the death of their parents, sisters Leni and Annette only have each other.
Desperate to support her younger sister, Leni finds work at a notorious cabaret: the Babylon Circus, a place where reality and fantasy merge.
It's an overwhelming new world, and Leni is happiest hiding in the shadows.

That is, until she meets the cabaret's resident pianist, Paul, beginning a tentative love affair that will play out over the next forty years and will change the course of their lives forever.

In a city whose divisions will define a century, can a love born within the feverish walls of the Babylon Circus ever survive?

And can the bond between Leni and Annette - tugged in opposite directions of their own - also endure?


Praise for Circus of Mirrors:

'An all-singing, all-dancing, moving and masterful book about two complex sisters living in incredibly complex times. Brilliant.' Anna Mazzola, author of The Clockwork Girl

'Bold, brave and absorbing' Elizabeth Buchan, author of Bonjour, Sophie

'With hints of Atonement, this is an epic novel' Louise Fein, author of Daughter of the Reich
