Review
"A chilling mélange of aging, family responsibility and criminal activity--. Fascinating and frightening-- intensely sinister." -Edmonton Journal
"Gripping--. The characters are appallingly real, stripped of any veneer of 'niceness.' [Let's Dance] tests the boundaries of the mystery genre, and succeeds." -Montreal Gazette
"Fyfield's finest novel yet--. A superbly written story with characters who contain and control the action, and enough suspense to keep me reading long into the night. Let's Dance is a spellbinding study of love, neurosis and the tragedy of senility." -The Globe and Mail
"A fascinating tale of family intrigue--. Fyfield is at her best--. A thrillers go, this one is worth the read." -Ottawa Citizen

Book Description
When Isabel Burley returns home to care for her mother who is suffering from Alzheimer's, she finds a bemused, angry old woman, prey to the threats of failing memory, the inability to run her household - and the local villains who are eyeing her isolated home. But as the villains close in, Isabel finds herself struggling with her own emotions. She thinks she has come home to do some good, but is she really looking for the love she lacked as a child? Alienated by her mother's growing eccentricity, the two women become locked in a relationship of love, conflict and simmering violence, with roots that go deep into the past.
