This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the 1970s gave way to the 80s, New York's party scene entered a ferociously inventive period characterized by its creativity, intensity, and hybridity. Life and Death on the New York Dance Floor chronicles this tumultuous time, charting the sonic and social eruptions that took place in the city’s subterranean party venues as well as the way they cultivated breakthrough movements in art, performance, video, and film. Interviewing DJs, party hosts, producers, musicians, artists, and dancers, Tim Lawrence illustrates how the relatively discrete post-disco, post-punk, and hip hop scenes became marked by their level of plurality, interaction, and convergence. He also explains how the shifting urban landscape of New York supported the cultural renaissance before gentrification, Reaganomics, corporate intrusion, and the spread of AIDS brought this gritty and protean time and place in American culture to a troubled denouement.

Enter Harper Beck, witch, amateur sleuth, and all around groove machine. Harper hasn't left Waresville in ten years, not since she was handed the lifeline of her inheritance and was able to rise from the slums of Miami. Now the cousin she hasn't talked to in years is dragging her back to the city where it all started, because someone is trying to do away with him.

Unfortunately, with Harper now on the case, the clock is ticking for both of them. If Harper can't find the witch amongst hundreds of suspects and overcome her old prejudices, neither of the Becks will make it out of this high school reunion alive. Novella (approx. 35,000 words). Fifth Volume of the Harper "Foxxy" Beck Mystery Series. It is a standalone (reading prior or future volumes not required to enjoy the book, no cliffhanger).
