Sypnosis

After his clash with the Borman brothers, Hank Whirling sets up his own circus. But because of the rainfall, his first disastrous season requires him to get a huge bank loan – but he has to take along a publicist and press agent to help the circus turn a profit. When the Whirling circus train derails en route to Niagara Falls, star tightrope walker Mama Colino is killed in the accident. Then others incidents occur, too many of them to be merely fortuitous. Are the Borman brothers attempting to eliminate a competitor?
