Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annie and Taylor fell in love. She, a waitress and he, a financial wizard. They moved to a cabin on the slopes of Maui's Haleakala, a small piece of Hawaiian heaven with a beautiful world spread at their feet. When Taylor suddenly dies, Annie's world dissolves. His death reveals who he was not. His lies profound. He'd lied about an inheritance received and lied about his name - Taylor Gordon had never existed. On a beautiful sunny day, Kensington Stone and LLoyd Moniz, fishing on Stone's yacht close to the island of Molokai, they saw and saved a woman from drowning. It was Annie Gaines. With their help, they uncovered the truth that Gordon was not who he claimed to be and discovered the benefactor of Taylor's supposed inheritance had never existed. He had been embezzling huge sums of money. Physical threats soon inundated Annie all because Gordon failed to realize, when he began stealing, that he was embezzling from the son of the notorious Gravello crime family from Sicily. Anthony Gravello wanted his money back and was quite willing to go to extremes to get it - even if it cost Annie her life.

Disappearing Act: hit the top of Amazon's Best Seller List for Hardboiled Mystery in June 2021. "Fast-moving book that keeps you turning the pages to follow along with the main character, a connected guy from Chicago, while he hunts for the 2 million bucks. The author has plenty of great dialogue and plot twists that keep you guessing on what's going to happen next. You won't win those bets, but you will get a great payoff in the end. Great read. You will enjoy it." -- D.F. Dempster, Reviewer. "I found the book very entertaining, being from start to finish a pleasure to read. Mr. Pace rolls out a tightly weaved plot filled to the gills with colorful characters, places, and things. It is a very creative and busy novel that accomplishes what many novels don't. It never hits one false note. Through all the wild twists and crazy developments you're introduced to, the reader can feel confident that all is safe in the hands of a master storyteller. This comes across page after page until the author folds all the pieces together, giving the story a very satisfying ending. This isn't my normal genre, but happy that I checked it out. I'm left curious to check out Mr. Pace's other works." -- Dave Fouts, Reviewer
