(pb; 1996: second book in the Jane Whitefield series)
From the back cover
“. . . 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 snow., 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.”
Review
Dance is a good, swiftly plotted follow-up to Vanishing Act, with Jane taking on incorporated, seemingly omnipresent assassins. The action sequences are fewer in Dance (as are Jane’s Native American introspective thoughts) than in Vanishing, but with its different set-up, same character depth, and overall excellent writing, it’s an action thriller worth seeking. Followed by Shadow Woman.
