Circus Of Thieves And The Raffle Of Doom - Plot & Excerpts
She was smiling to herself – enjoying the show in her own special way – but was in no condition to notice her granddaughter slip past her, down the aisle, and out of the Big Top. It wasn’t exactly the most stealthy of departures, either since Hannah had a lump of half-melted candy floss stuck to the sole of her shoe, which squelched and squerched with every step, but Granny was such a heavy sleeper that a church bell, a smoke alarm and a police siren set off under her chair probably would have made no difference. Granny snored on, dreaming of candy floss clouds perched on telegraph pole sticks, and Hannah sneaked away. She made straight for Narcissus’s living quarters (woe betide26 anyone who Narcissus heard calling it a cage), and greeted Billy with a big hug. She didn’t even know she was going to hug him – it just happened – but Billy didn’t seem to mind. Among circus folk, this kind of behaviour was probably perfectly normal.
