In the sixteenth century hundreds of residents of Strasbourg in Alsace (now France) danced uncontrollably for days on end, many dropping dead from their exertions.Nearly four hundred years later “the dancing plague” has returned, this time afflicting the residents of an idyllic Cape Cod town.For twelve-year-old Ben Graves and his two friends, the inexplicable dancing mania is only the beginning of the horror to come.

Publisher's note:

Although

The Dancing Plague

can be read as a complete, stand-alone, full-length novel, it has been conceived as a two-part story. This is Book 1. It is set in 1988 and tells the story from the perspectives of three 12-year-old children. Book 2 will be set in the present day and continue the story from the perspectives of the same three children, only as middle-aged adults. So please stay tuned! The release date for Book 2 is late 2022.
