Zula and Milo are back on another thrilling, time travelling adventure as their magical bathtub catapults them to the year 1845. Here they meet trailblazer Pablo Fanque, the first Black circus owner and master equestrian, and are plunged into a vibrant world of Victorian acrobats and daring lion tamers.

But a series of puzzling events threaten to destroy Pablo’s circus dreams, putting the entire performance - and Zula and Milo’s return home - at risk.

With the clock ticking down to opening night, can Zula unravel the mystery in time?

Discover a page-turning adventure of friendship and courage that celebrates a remarkable figure from Black British history for 8 year olds and up.
