Dance in an Empty Room - A novel by Derek Bates

'A haunting story which held me to the final page'
'Surreal analysis of a young woman's discovery of the power of dance to heal a troubled mind'


A free-spirited and enchanted young woman, Grace Belari, discovers a painting of an ethereal young man in an old dilapidated house. Grace, hypnotised by the picture, cannot stop dreaming about the painting, and undertakes a journey of discovery through an other-worldly vision of Europe to search for him. When she finds him, he is as intriguing as the painting - but something terrible has happened to him.

An extraordinary mythic vision of fantasy and suspense.

Dance In An Empty Room will awaken your subconscious and put you in touch with a reality that lies just below the surface of everyday life.
