A Circle of Dead Girls by Eleanor Kuhns
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1790s. The circus has arrived in Durham topleasure of the inhabitants. Including Will Rees, but he notices that Magistrate Hanson is also there. A man he blames for his and his family's flight from Dugard two years earlier.
But soon Will is drawn into a murder investigation when a body of a young girl is discovered. Bored with his farm life he seeks out all opportunities to visit the circus, and one person in particular, using the excuse that he is asking them all questions. But will Will's stubbornness and temper distract him from the case.
An enjoyable and well-written mystery, with a cast of well-drawn and mainly likeable characters.
