title: Ask a Shadow to Dance
author: George, Linda
description: Two riverboats. Two people in different centuries. Can love find a way to keep them together? While attending a dance on board the Memphis Queen III, Dr. David Stewart sees a woman standing in the shadows, dressed in black, with a veil covering her face. Lisette's old-fashioned clothes, speech, and her fascination with "new" landmarks common to present-day Memphis fascinate him. The next morning, David reads an article about the disappearance of the Cajun Star, in 1885, the most luxurious riverboat ever to sail the Mississippi. On the list of passengers he finds Lisette's name - and his own. Somehow, David must find a way to go back to 1885 in order to keep Lisette and himself off a riverboat destined to leave Memphis and never be seen again. Ask a Shadow to Dance will leave the reader breathless with suspense and desperate for David and Lisette to find a way to be together - in one century or the other.
