Some stories don’t just entertain — they insist we pay attention.
To Disappear is one of them.
Set in the shadowed world most people never see, this gritty 1980s thriller follows blues singer Amanda Granger — orphaned, gifted, and fighting to survive the streets of Chicago. But when she’s pulled into an elite world of high-price escorts and framed for the murder of a police officer, Amanda must rely on instinct, courage, and sheer will to stay alive and prove her innocence.
As danger closes in, every choice could mean freedom… or becoming another forgotten tragedy on the evening news.
“It moves at a relentless pace, while still exploring the emotional scars and moral complexities of the world…”
Blurb:
Orphaned at eleven Amanda Granger grew up navigating the streets of Chicago where predators lurked in plain sight and violence against women was ignored by those meant to protect them.
After a childhood marked by trauma Amanda escapes to Salt Lake City, but her past follows her and Amanda is sold into the high-stakes world of two and three thousand dollar a night call girls. Now, she has to find a way out before she becomes just another statistic on the ten o’clock news. And she has to learn to trust. But, in this world, trust is a luxury.
Haunted by betrayal and determined to escape, Amanda forms fragile alliances and discovers the power of compassion – for herself and for others whose choices have been shaped by their circumstances. She also finds hope, resilience, and courage.
