Productdetails
- From the New York Times bestselling author of Something in the Water and Mr. Nobody comes “an unputdownable mystery about the nightmares that abound in the pursuit of Hollywood dreams” (Caroline Kepnes, author of the You series). “Stylish, riveting, hugely atmospheric—I couldn’t put it down.”—Lucy Foley, author of The Guest ListA woman has gone missing. But did she ever really exist?A leading British actress hoping to make a splash in America flies to Los Angeles for the grueling gauntlet known as pilot season, a time when every network and film studio looking to fill the rosters of their new shows entice a fresh batch of young hopefuls—anxious, desperate, and willing to do whatever it takes to make it.Instead, Mia Eliot, a fish out of water in the ruthlessly competitive and faceless world of back-to-back auditioning, discovers the sinister side of Hollywood when she becomes the last person to see Emily, a newfound friend. Standing out in a conveyor-belt world of fellow aspiring stars, Emily mysteriously disappears following an audition, after asking Mia to do a simple favor. But nothing is simple. Nothing is as is seems. And nothing prepares Mia for a startling truth: In a city where dreams really do come true, nightmares can follow.

Psychological Thrillers Editorial Review
**** Catherine Steadman's *The Disappearing Act* offers a gripping glimpse into the world of Hollywood that both intrigues and entertains. The narrative follows Mia, a British actress who, after a tumultuous breakup, journeys to Los Angeles in hopes of reinvigorating her career. Her life takes a mysterious turn when she meets the enigmatic Emily during an audition, only to later discover that Emily has vanished, leaving behind her personal items. This sets Mia on a suspenseful quest to uncover what happened to her new friend—an investigation that grows increasingly perilous as she unravels the secrets surrounding Emily's disappearance. Readers have praised the fast-paced, engaging writing style that Steadman is known for, and the book's portrayal of the competitive nature of the acting industry, especially from a British perspective. Mia is depicted as a relatable and determined character, navigating the cutthroat world of Hollywood while inadvertently placing herself in dangerous situations. The tension builds throughout the narrative, and while some readers found the conclusion somewhat predictable, many appreciated the unexpected twists that kept them on their toes. Despite a few critiques regarding plot holes and moments where Mia's decisions raised eyebrows, the overall reception of *The Disappearing Act* has been overwhelmingly positive. The combination of suspense, character development, and a unique setting captivates readers, with many noting that the book is a steadfast page-turner, perfect for those looking for a thrilling escape into the mesmerizing and often treacherous landscape of fame. **
