Publisher Synopsis
Praise for THE FLYING CIRCUS "Susan Crandall's The Flying Circus is a fascinating story of love and loss set against the colorful background of barnstorming 1920s America. Every detail sings, and every character will touch your heart in this rip-roaring tale of three daredevils on the run, each with something to hide, drawn together by a desire to conquer the skies as well as their own demons. Romance, suspense, aerial thrills and spills-what more is there to ask for?" -- Melanie Benjamin, New York Times bestselling author of THE AVIATOR'S WIFE "The Flying Circus is Susan Crandall at her best-a colorful, rich and historical tale of the early years of flight. Heroes and villains and an achingly sweet romance will pull at the reader's heart long after the last page is turned. I loved this book!" -- New York Times bestselling author Karen White "An exhilarating, memorable flight into the world of barnstorming in the 1920's, with all the twists and turns of an aerial acrobat. Compelling characters and a fascinating setting make this journey a sheer joyride. Satisfying and delightful!" -- Lynn Cullen, national bestselling author of MRS. POE "Exciting adventures abound when three unlikely misfits take to the skies. Friendships are challenged, lives are risked, and dark secrets threaten to tear the trio apart as they barnstorm across America's heartland. A spirited, big-hearted tale." -- Beth Hoffman, New York Times bestselling author of LOOKING FOR ME "Deeply moving. A richly drawn story of love, loss, and redemption with characters as finely tuned as the planes they fly." -- Wendy Wax, USA Today bestselling author of A WEEK AT THE LAKE "An engaging road saga." * Kirkus Reviews * "An entertaining surprise... this old-fashioned novel plays like a refreshed mash-up of William Faulkner's Pylon and the 1970s Robert Redford vehicle The Great Waldo Pepper." * Publishers Weekly * "Historical fiction with appeal to both romance and adventure fans." * Booklist * "Crandall has crafted a wonderfully charming, memorable and thought-provoking read." * RT Book Reviews * "Crandall has written an absorbing and frequently touching story that reminds us of the challenges of forming new communities with different people-and the rewards." * USA Today * Praise for THE FLYING CIRCUS "Susan Crandall's The Flying Circus is a fascinating story of love and loss set against the colorful background of barnstorming 1920s America.
