Emma Morgan’s husband dies suddenly, and she stumbles on evidence he siphoned off large amounts of their personal savings to an intimidating stranger.

She must now find her way through a labyrinth of terrifying challenges, or cower behind the wall of her deepest insecurities forever.

Complications increase when she is swept off her feet by a charismatic widower who is carrying secrets of his own; secrets that threaten to destroy her world all over again. Simultaneously, her dearest friend becomes ill, stretching her emotional resources to the breaking point.

Emma is forced to examine the past in order to determine why, throughout life, fear has dictated her choices. Insight begins to empower her. Compelled to uncover the truth of her late husband’s mysterious double life, she goes in search of the ghost in the Morgan’s family closet. Never could she have predicted the ghost would come back to life and knock her off her feet.

As she begins to reinvent her life according to her own design, she believes her tribulations are finally behind her. Then disaster strikes again, and she must admit one final truth she’s been denying—the passport to lasting happiness is close at hand, although it may be too late to reach out and claim it.

Shirley C. Whitman grew up in the beautiful Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia and spent many years of her adult life in the town of Yarmouth in the southwestern part of the province. There she raised two children, and later worked in the human services field.

Her trilogy, "Finding Home", published by Club Lighthouse Publishing, tells heart-warming stories that touch the heart and lift the spirit. "Dancing in the Dark" is the story of a woman who rises above loss and betrayal to find a new life. "Now and Forever" concerns the soul-deep love of two teenagers, torn apart by circumstance. The third novel "How High the Moon" is the story of a young marriage and the tragedy that tore it apart.

Her novels, all set in Nova Scotia, are available both in e-book and paperback formats.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great storytelling!!
    Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2020
    I just finished reading the lovely and engrossing debut novel “Dancing in the Dark” by local author Shirley C. Whitman. I was sent a preview copy to read and I believe the print copy will be available next month from Club Lighthouse Publishing.
    The story is set here in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia and perfectly captures our beautiful seaside town and all of its’ charms.
    It is a very fast paced story and once I started, I could not put it down. The characters draw you in with their authentic dialogue and life events ... both the beautiful and the tragic. There are mysteries that unfold with every character, and you’re never quite sure how everything is going to turn out until the very last page. Whenever I thought I had part of it figured out, it would go off in a completely different direction.
    I also enjoyed the fact that it took place in a local setting, where I could easily imagine the events taking place. And being an avid gardener and bird watcher myself, I loved that these were the main pastimes and passions of Emma and Rosie. The descriptions of their gardens and homes, made me feel as if I were their neighbour, sitting on my front porch drinking tea, watching their lives unfold.
    However, even though it has a local setting and is written by a local author, I believe the book itself will have a broad appeal. It will definitely be of interest to those who have visited Yarmouth or to those who were born here and have moved away. But it will also resonate with a wide variety of readers because the themes are universal... love, loss, family, nature and the ability to start over, no matter what kind of losing hand you are dealt.
    This book is the first of a trilogy. I can not wait for the next two installments.
    I highly recommend this book to everyone.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An emotional compelling read.

    Dancing in the Dark is the first of a three book series authored by Shirley C. Whitman in the Mainstream/Women’s Fiction genre, published by Club Lighthouse Publishing, in 2020. This is the first book from this new author that I have had the pleasure to read and if this story is an indication, Ms. Whitman has a successful writing career ahead of her.
    In this story, Emma Morgan is forced to deal with the repercussions that follow the shocking endings of not one but two loving relationships. Gone is her stable marriage and when she has finally come to grips with life again disaster takes the life of another loved one. Emma must face her own insecurities and overcome the consequences of lost partners. Once she moves forward with some too long abandoned lifestyle changes she begins to accept that true love and happiness are much closer than she ever expected.
    Set in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, Ms. Whitman has created this story as an emotional compelling read. This is a book which deserves to be a best seller.
