Description

"A complex story in which suspects, love interests, journalistic integrity and frustrations, all play a role. The denouement is cleverly engineered to surprise, and the bloody elements are nicely balanced with Hannah's deep love for her infant daughter and her attraction to a man of mystery." - Bonnie MacBird


"A very good and gripping storyline. I love the character of Hannah Weybridge, she keeps you on the edge of your seat. Dancers in the Wind is easy to read and keeps you engrossed. A great novel, looking forward to the sequel." Alison Waterfield


"I was not sure what I was going to get when I picked this book up, I was not expecting short snappy chapters that kept me hooked throughout the book nor was I expecting to have read over half the book in one sitting. I feel like this book blew me away in such an unexpected way... The scary thing with this story, it shows you how far corruption can run up the ladder, corrupt cops, politicians, well-respected men in power...corrupt, doesn't that ring true! How far the cover-ups go, how to quiet the press, how to intimidate everyone into keeping quiet." Zoe


"A cleverly written, nicely paced and utterly believable story. Set in London in the recent past, there is a familiarity to the setting; that sense of place almost a character in its own right... With Coates' cast, as in life, what is thought does not necessarily resemble what is said or what is done. Her portrayal of human nature is, I think, well observed. She embraces conflicting and often irrational emotions never making the characters' decisions overly straight forward or clear cut. As a reader, one must decide whether or not to believe in coincidence just as the characters, in their part, must decide how to act on them. It is easy to get caught in the action and you may find yourself wondering what you would do in a character's place." Kelly Lacey


Freelance journalist and single mother Hannah Weybridge is commissioned by a national newspaper to write an investigative article on the notorious red light district in Kings Cross. There she meets prostitute Princess, and police inspector in the vice squad, Tom Jordan.

When Princess later arrives on her doorstep beaten up so badly she is barely recognisable, Hannah has to make some tough decisions and is drawn ever deeper into the world of deceit and violence. Three sex workers are murdered, their deaths covered up in a media blackout, and Hannah herself is under threat.

As she comes to realise that the taste for vice reaches into the higher echelons of the great and the good, Hannah realises she must do everything in her power to expose the truth .... and stay alive.
