Page of Buckets (Circus Tarot)

Let’s have Clown fun!When their six-year-old daughter, Susie, announces she wants to go to the circus, World Circus’ uneasy memories fill Mary and Darrin. Mary would never admit that she still thought fondly of the charming place, while Darrin wants to forget it ever existed. Susie becomes obsessed with circuses, going as far as creating a makeshift tent in her bedroom. Unknown to Mary and Darrin, World Circus knitted itself back together from scraps of paper and greeting cards stuffed into a box with the only remaining Circus Tarot card, Hanging Clown, which Darrin had kept as a memento. Ace of Buckets visits little Susie while she sleeps, giving her visions of the circus to entice her into the clutches of World Circus.When Mary and Darrin return to World Circus to rescue Susie, they learn she is a Clown, but not just any Clown. She is the Page of Buckets, an imaginative, creative Clown with a flair for maiming and torturing her victims. Soon, Mary and Darrin are seduced by the impulsive world’s charms, drawing them tighter into its grip.

About the Author

I grew up in a small town of five hundred people in Wyoming that everyone always pronounces wrong or spells incorrectly, Shoshoni (show show knee); I swear it's a real place. My first novel, Dreamwalker: The Second Plain, is LGBTQ+ as are HOME and Daughter of Illusion. My other books include the Circus Tarot Trilogy (it's Clowns and Tarot, what's not to love), Hunger, Hydrangeas on the Lanai and Darkness is Coming. And last, but not least, I have two anthology collections, An Unnamed Acquaintance and Liaisons Macabre. Oh, yeah, I currently live with my husband of twenty-one years in Colorado with our three cats, ten crested geckos, and one saltwater fish tank. Checkout my website charleswjonesauthor.com.
