Just a stone's throw from London stands the manor house of the illustrious Phantomhive earldom. Earl Phantomhive is a giant in the world of commerce, Queen Victoria's faithful servant, and a 12-year old boy. Fortunately, his loyal butler Sebastian stands his side, ready to carry out the young master's wishes.

The cheer of the holidays has passed, but the Noah's Ark traveling circus has been making the rounds, bringing fun and joy to children of all ages.

Children are disappearing whenever the circus packs up for its next destination, and there are neither clues nor corpses to be found. Dismayed by these occurrences, Queen Victoria dispatches Earl Phantomhive and his most able butler Sebastian to locate and reunite the missing children and their loved ones.

Having successfully infiltrated the Noah's Ark Circus as the stage personas Smile and Black, Earl Ciel Phantomhive and his consummate butler, Sebastian set about gathering clues backstage as to the whereabouts of the missing children Queen Victoria wishes them to recover. But between the duties required of them as the newest members of the troupe and their death defying performances, even this most efficient master and servant find themselves short on time.

Earl Ciel Phantomhive's quietude following the conclusion of the case of Noah's Ark Circus is short-lived, as Queen Victoria's very own butlers commandeer Phantomhive Manor and all its residents for a lavish banquet sanctioned by Her Majesty. Preparations for such an event are quick work in the hands of Sebastian, the house's most able butler, but corralling eminent guests during his young master's first-ever attempt at playing host may prove to be rather more of a challenge!

Will his appearance shed light on the fate of the students who have gone missing, or will the mysteries continue to pile up within these hallowed school grounds?
