Jodi Picoult, the New York Times best-selling author of Second Glance and My Sister's Keeper, is a master at crafting stirring stories that are rife with suspense. In Vanishing Acts this acclaimed author delivers the gripping tale of a woman caught between her forgotten past and her uncertain future.

Life could hardly be better for Delia Hopkins. She has a young daughter and a handsome fiancé, and with her search-and-rescue bloodhound, she helps find missing persons. But as she plans for her wedding, she is haunted by inexplicable flashbacks to a time she cannot recall.
