Jane filled me with the power every women should feel!

The main character, Jane Whitefeild, filled me with the power that every women should know. Beauty, intelligence, strength, grace and a sence of ones self. This has got to be one of the best books I have red in a few years. Bravo to Thomas Perry

Fascinating premise, interesting character - kept me reading

Ever wondered how people disappear intentionally? Read this book and find out. Jane Whitfield is an interesting character and a bit of a rarity among male authors - she's a woman who lives a very different life and makes no apologies for it. She helps people in genuine trouble - not criminals running from the law - disappear into new lives. This book kept me reading until the end, despite disappointment in Whitfield's decision to help the person who comes to her at the beginning of the book with a rather unlikely story. Perhaps her need to believe is part of her character. Hopefully future books will explore her reasons for her unusual "occupation" - she doesn't take money for her work, it turns out

An irresistable page-turner in the wee hours

_Vanishing_Act_ is the 3rd in a series featuring Jane, a woman "guide" who helps people establish new identities. From the initial "vanishing act" until the last page is turned, this is a book that's hard to put down. You just wanna keep going to find out what's gonna happen next!

I haven't read the 2 books that precede this one, and am looking forward to correcting that deficiency. I do wonder if Perry has become tired of his heroine; she keeps saying and saying that this is her last job. I sincerely hope not.

A fast-paced, well-wrought crime novel.

A great book! A good, old-fashioned, page-turner with a twist: Jane Whitefield. Whitefield is a woman who helps people in trouble disappear to better and safer lives. She maneuvers through a world of crime and deception with stealth, cunning, and strength. Whitefield is also half Seneca and her Native American upbringing plays an intricate role in her life and is crucial to her survival. Perry has done a fantastic job. I hope there's more Jane Whitefield to come!

Better-than-average thriller by evocative writer.

"Procedural" thriller with engaging heroine and good ideas about hiding and finding people. Author's "Dance for the Dead" (same heroine) is better
