But even Joe senses that his luck is finally running out until a chance encounter hints at a way out.As the paths of these three men slowly converge toward an inevitable and potentially violent collision, it becomes obvious that the simple life James Perkins hoped to find is anything but simple.Set against the backdrop of Maine's majestic Mount Desert Island, The Vanishing Expert is an engaging mystery filled with romance, heartache, and humor, and populated with complex and compelling characters that will stay with you long after you turn the final page.
