Pierce Brosnan had some real life circus experience from his younger days. He actually used to breath fire.
After Mildred goes to the travelling circus for a seance, the detective agency gets roped in wheh an intruder knockes Remington on the head.
Going undercover as trapeze artists with Mildred as a bearded lady. Remington immediately comes to the aid of a circus performer in peril. It looks like the equipment was sabotaged.
Overlooking the circus from a distance is the mysterious Turk like some phantom of the opera. Remington and Laura think that Turk might have been involved in some thefts of valuable items and a past murder.
The plot could get rather convoluted with all the suspects involved and with each new mishap there was a new suspect. I did like how the black character, Max Cronin would run away after each accident knowing he would get blamed.
