Summary

Under the glitz and glamour of the Noah's Ark Circus lies a dark undercurrent of mystery and malevolence in late-nineteenth-century London. As this popular troupe captivates audiences with their dazzling performances, a sinister pattern of child disappearances follows their trail. Tasked by Queen Victoria, the young Earl Ciel Phantomhive, along with his demon butler Sebastian Michaelis, goes undercover as circus performers to investigate these incidents. The duo navigates a complex web of suspicion and danger, trying to maintain their disguises while digging deeper into the circus's secrets.

The investigation tests Ciel's resolve as they encounter increasingly perilous situations and unravel connections that may lead to the circus's enigmatic patron. As Sebastian showcases his preternatural abilities on stage and off, they draw closer to uncovering the fate of the missing children. What begins as a mission to rescue the innocents soon turns into a test of courage and morality, revealing the grim realities hidden beneath the circus's tent.
