Product Description Determined to save her grandmother from a hereditary illness, Sabine goes to visit a distant relative who may have clues to the whereabouts of a mysterious remedy book. But there's someone else clamoring for Sabine's attention: a fifty-year-old ghost named Chloe who's been appearing in her dreams. Despite death threats and missing the school dance, Sabine must use her psychic skills to solve the mystery surrounding Chloe's untimely demise and lay her soul to rest.

Disappointing March 17, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
'The Last Dance' starts off with Sabine Rose and Dominic listening to Sabine's grandmother talk about a disease that she had that was causing her to lose her memory. The only way this disease could be cured was if Sabine and Dominic found her long-lost family remedy book. Sabine's search for the book leads her to a town called Pine Peaks where everyone is obsessed with a 50-year-old ghost named Chloe. The ghost Chloe then bugs Sabine until she helps her finish her unsolved business.
The plot of the book is very predictable, VERY overdone 'teenage girl who will do anything to fit in'. There was no suspense in the book and I found myself rushing just so that I could be through with the book. The ending was predictable and boring. The whole reason Sabine went to Pine Peaks was so she could track down the remedy book for her grandmother. During almost the entire book, Sabine just helped Chloe and did nothing to try and find the family remedy book. She didn't find out anything about the remedy book until the last couple of pages of the book.
Overall, this book was anti-climatic, boring, predictable, and very disappointing.
An excellent teen read November 15, 2007 When I found this series, I needed a gift for my teenage niece, who was heavy into Harry Potter at the time. She immediately gobbled up this book and finished the entire series as well. I highly recommend it.
A hauntingly great ghost story April 21, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
In Linda Joy Singleton's LAST DANCE, Sabine seeks the herbal potion, written in an old family book, that will cure her ill grandmother. On her quest, she meets a ghost, who has been haunting her dreams, and the mystery deepens. Will Sabine find the book in time to save her grandmother? Or will the ghost have the final say? I highly recommend this series for ghost lovers, mystery lovers, and everyone who loves a great story.Listen to the GhostThe Secrets I Have Kept
thank you December 16, 2006 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
This isn't exactly a review. I just wanted to say thank you for including my mother, Dona Vaughn, in the dedication section of this book. She would have been delighted and told you congratulations on your continued success... Renate
That's Good, That's Bad July 16, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
That's good: Just finished Linda Joy Singleton's The Last Dance (second in her Seer Series) She's created a living breathing characters I care about, and am completely intrigued by. Even the bad guy. The fact that it has a character with psychic powers, who is starting over in a new school after her mother sends her away, makes the story that much better because of the emotion it adds to the story. You want Sabine to fit in just as bad as she does. The funny thing is, she may end up fitting in because she accepts who and what she is rather than pretending to be something she's not. That I don't know for sure because there are more books in the series I need to read, which leads me to...
That's bad:
Why did I not buy three and four when I could? Now, I must wait. Not for long though, so I guess that's good afterall.
