The second in the series set in the Derbyshire Peak District,
Dancing with the Virgins is a tense psychological follow-up to
Stephen Booth's acclaimed debut Black Dog. 'The body of the woman
sprawled obscenely among the stones... She looked like a dead
woman, dancing.' The ring of cairns known as the Nine Virgins has
stood on the windswept moors of Derbyshire for centuries. Now, as
winter closes in, a tenth figure is added - a body - and a modern
tragedy is added to the dark legend that surrounds the stones.
There's no shortage of suspects, each with their own guilty secret,
but what DS Fry and DC Cooper lack is any kind of motive. As they
search separately for answers, it seems the reasons for the strange
behaviour of the moor's inhabitants may lie somewhere in the past,
in a terrible crime yet to be discovered...
