Summary

"A retelling of Snow White and Rose Red in which teenage twins Ivory and Rosie battle evil religious extremists to save their loves and their circus family." --, (Source of summary not specified)Twins Rosie and Ivory have grown in the circus; their mother is the ringmaster. They're returning to Port End, the closest place to home they know. Yet something has changed: fundamentalist flyers paper the walls and preachers fill the squares, warning of shadows falling over the land. The circus prepares a triumphant homecoming show, full of lights and spectacle that could chase away even the darkest shadow. But during Rosie's tightrope act, disaster strikes. Now it is up to Ivory and her magician love-- with the help of a dancing bear-- to track down an evil priest and save their circus family before it is too late. -- adapted from jacket
