"Harlequin vixens Chloe, Aya, Tina, and Candy may not be assassins, but they're armed and dangerous and pissed. The girls must accept a local-yokel crime boss's murder-for-hire contract if they ever hope to escape the demeaning life of being clowns in a two-bit circus."

"The painted beauties go in guns a-blazin' to earn the bounty they need to crawl out of their squalid clown life. But the girls find out they're not quite as tough as they thought-and when they fail to carry out the job to the letter, the boss decides he wants a refund. "

"With two clowns left in her crew, Chloe finds herself in the clutches of the knife-wielding Sasha, the Russian bombshell. Meanwhile, Billy has lured Aya into his lair . . . i.e., his shabby trailer. With the circus on fire, what end will come to the remaining clowns fatales? o Angel & Faith writer Victor Gischler! o Cover by Tim Seeley (Hack/Slash, Revival). 'Gischler . . . comes up with plenty of laughs . . . imbedded within a small war's worth of bullets and blood.'-Publishers Weekly "
