About this listen

Sherlock and Lucy must juggle a circus of suspects to find a killer.

On a cold March morning in London, Sherlock and Lucy are called to The Olympia Amphitheater, where a clown, lifeless, hangs suspended from the high wire. They have only a few hours to find the killer before the next performance. If they fail, the circus grounds will soon be filled with angry and fearful spectators, and the killer may strike again.

The circus world is close-knit and secretive, so Lucy and Jack masquerade as the replacement act for the clown. Dressed as magicians, they bring the ever-inquisitive little Becky as their assistant. But unless they can crack the case in time, they'll be exposed as fakes. Then an old adversary threatens to turn their investigation into a high-stakes balancing act.

With each clue more baffling than the last, the Baker Street team will need more than a magic wand to reveal the truth.

If you love the classic nostalgia of Conan Doyle, the cunning plots of Agatha Christie, and the heart-racing suspense of Lee Child, "The Clown on the High Wire" is just what you've been looking for.

Step right up to the big top of mystery with "The Clown on the High Wire." Join Sherlock and Lucy in this thrilling short story, where every act is a clue and every performer a suspect. Scroll up and One-click now!
