Death Dance - Suspenseful Studies of the Dance Macabre (Paperback)

The fourteen stories of this unusual anthology are of the dance put to other, darker uses. Here it appears as the means of luring prey, a cold business proposition, a hard-fought competition and aggression, an expression of misogyny, a manifestation of an unhealthy mind and even a pathway to madness. The stories contain strong plot lines and denouements that are both plausible and satisfying, but the moods they evoke, their settings, and the characters they reveal are refreshingly varied. Included in this stellar anthology are the following: "In Our Part of the World" by Andrew Kennedy; "Dirty Dancing" by Carole Nelson Douglas; "Changing Partners" by Henry Slesar; "Dancing the Night Away" by Brendan DuBois; "The Trespasser" by Alexandra Whitaker; "Mrs. Website's Dance" by Ina Bouman; "At the Hop" by Bill and Judy Crider; "The Dance of the Apsara" by Joan Richter; "Death of a Damn Moose" by Barbara Burnett Smith; "Jookin' and Jivin' " by Linda Kerslake; "Dance with Death" by Carmen Iarrera; "The Mechanique Affair" by Ruth Cagin; "You Can Jump" by Mat Coward; "Tango Was Her Life" by John Lutz
