"Schneider has given us a viciously funny book that does to the experiences of manhood, war and 60's Catholicism what blenders do to spirits—with a resulting cocktail worthy of being served to the likes of Twain, David Foster Wallace, and John Kennedy Toole. A blurb can't hack it—read this book!"

—Michael C. Delisa, Author of Cinderella Man

A vibrant woman facing her golden years, Lucinda Craig moves to Hill Crest Manor, a luxury retirement home in the low-country of South Carolina.  Little does she know that the home of her dreams will soon be the center of her nightmares.

“Vanishing Act just may be a future best seller...if you want to be one of the first readers...add this one to your "must-read" list! . . . Take a break from reality and enjoy this award-winning fiction novel...just for the enjoyment and pleasure I'm sure you'll have!”

This is not just another book. It's not for everyone. Not for those wanting to stay in the Box of Contained Thought. Not for the mundane, but for those who want to get into the Belly of the Beast regarding abstract thought.
