    About Dance for the Dead

    “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

    Author Essay

    Long before I started to work in publishing, I "met" and adored Thomas Perry — starting with METZGER’S DOG and continuing faithfully with every book since. With his Jane Whitefield books, Perry has outdone himself and I’m in a constant state of anticipation, waiting for the next one.  Since I have access to so many books, I’m always delighted to share them with other avid readers, and last week I found a message on my answering machine telling me that one of my friends was a new devotee. I was really excited to know I’d introduced another reader to Jane and her tantalizing adventures.  Start with VANISHING ACT and keep on going through DANCE FOR THE DEAD and SHADOW WOMAN.  

    Tanya Thompson, Executive Assistant
