The classic tale of espionage set in Cold War Europe, where the world's
greatest circus acrobat must break into an impenetrable fortress, from
the acclaimed master of action and suspense.
Bruno Wildermann of the Wrinfield Circus is the world's greatest trapeze
artist, a clairvoyant with near-supernatural powers and an implacable
enemy of the East European regime that arrested his family and murdered
his wife.
The CIA needs such a man, and recruits Bruno for an impossible raid - on
the impreganble Lubylan fortress, where his family is held.
Under cover of a circus tour, Bruno prepares to return to his homeland.
But before the journey even begins a murderer strikes twice. Somewhere
in the circus there is a communist agent with orders to stop Bruno at
any cost...
