Publisher's summary

Come one, come all and see the greatest show in the Imperial Valley!

The Circus Oasis is back!

The original Circus Oasis hotel was shut down in the '70s after tragedy struck the Salton Sea. Many years later, after a massive rejuvenation of the area, the Lazar family has rebuilt the hotel, expecting a grand opening...and hoping the past stays buried in the desert sands where they left it.

Families pile into the hotel for the inaugural Big Top Show, all smiles and in good cheer despite the blistering desert heat, excited to be among the first to experience this new attraction. However, in nearby Bombay Beach, there is something else brewing. Something that has become a staple for the locals during the decades the Salton Sea had been ignored. The residents of Bombay Beach now have a taste for entertainment that is a bit more twisted than what can be offered at a mere circus.

When the vagabond woman places a beautifully carved tramp art box like an offering at the water’s edge, things begin to get interesting. Guests Bette de Anza and the Burkheads family begin to experience episodes of the uncanny. These episodes seem to be trivial at first but get more peculiar in the days leading up to the Big Top Show. Soon they are drawn into a strange underworld in a desolate little town society has forgotten.

Everyone smiles as they wait for the Big Top Show to begin. And what a show it’s going to be!

Don’t miss...The Circus Oasis!
