Book Overview
On June 4, 1982, the body of a young woman surfaced from 300 feet of water in Lake Placid, New York. Because of the depth and intense cold of the water, the body which was determined by medical examiners to have been submerged for over twenty years, was remarkably well-preserved. At the time, the authorities were unable to establish the identity of the woman but concluded that her death had been violent.

I borrowed "Dancehall" several years ago, and remembered how much I enjoyed it. The story takes place in the Adirondacks. Not that far from my home town of Albany. Which was another reason I bought the book this time. I could relate to it's locale. The story is not so much a "who done it", but why was an innocent young girl murdered in the first place. It's a story of jealously, betrayal, and wrongly accused. I highly recommend it! Steve...
Opposition to the death penalty
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This is a riveting murder mystery. Contrary to a previous review, Mr. Conner did not make an error in timing. He was showing the error of re-instating the death penalty. The book was written when this was a very hot topic up here. The man in the book was minutes away from execution when the true killer confesses! If NY had the death penalty an innocent man would have died!! It really is a great book with a truly unexpected ending.

I bought this book while I was camping in Lake Placid. I have to admit that I was I was intrigued and surprised by the ending. Throughout the entire book I thought one character murdered the young girl and it was not until the end that it all came together. Good pacing and definately worth your time.
