I did. I'd watched my family sicken. I'd cleaned up their vomit and mopped their brows, but they had all died anyway. Most people died quickly from the plague.
Then I heard music, and a voice: "Dance!" she cried. "If you dance then death can't catch you."
Who was Lady Dance, I wondered, as we danced and sang through empty villages. Was she an angel sent to protect us, as Old Sure said?
When Lady Dance sang I saw a new and larger world; a world filled with hope and happiness, knights riding to Jerusalem and kings fighting for kingdoms - and I knew I had to find that world for myself.
Set in the Middle Ages when the bubonic plague was at its height, Lady Dance is an extraordinary story of love and the meeting of hearts and minds in the most unlikely circumstances.
