Dance for the Dead
Dance for the Dead
Eight-year-old Timothy Decker finds his parents brutally murdered. It's clear they weren't the intended victims. He needs to disappear fast. He needs Jane Whitefield, the resourceful Native American heroine who helps people escape their lives in order to keep them.
"Compelling . . . Nobody writes a chase better than [Thomas] Perry."--The Washington Post Book World Jane Whitefield is the patron saint of the pursued, a Native American "guide" who specializes in making victims vanish. Calling on the ancient wisdom of the Seneca tribe and her own razor-sharp cunning, she conjures up new identities for people with nowhere left to run. She's as quick and quiet as freshly fallen show, and she covers a trail just as completely. But when a calculating killer stalks an innocent eight-year-old boy, Jane faces dangerous obstacles that will put her powers--and her life--to a terrifying test. . . . Praise for Dance for the Dead "Spellbinding . . . Terrific . . . Jane Whitefield may be the most arresting protagonist in the 90s thriller arena. . . . Thrillers need good villains, and this one has a formidable SOB who is cold-blooded enough to satisfy anybody's taste."--Entertainment Weekly
"A terse thriller . . . Perry starts the story with a bang."--San Francisco Chronicle
"One of the most engaging heroines in contemporary suspense."--The Flint Journal
