"Vanishing Act" is the second book of the Jamie Richmond series. In this book, readers have an opportunity to view the curious and fiery protagonist in a different light. We get to know more about Linda Davis, Jamie's best friend, who returns home. Their banter is well written throughout the book through simple scenes such as a coffee catch up or heading to the gym. Another interesting and memorable sub-plot was Linda's romance with Dr. Vincent Schulte. Amidst the sense of normalcy and going through the motions, Linda has become a target of a stalker. Full of twists and turns, the big bang moment of Linda suddenly disappearing sets an engaging chain of events. Jamie is determined to find her best friend and the final few chapters hold your attention. The vivid imagery present by Mark Love will keep you at the edge of your seat. I look forward to reading the next mystery of the Richmond series. A 4 star read.

A thank you to Mark Love for giving me a copy of this book. This honest review is left voluntarily.
