The Art of Vanishing (A Lila Maclean Academic Mystery Book 2) (English Edition) Kindle版

4.1 5つ星のうち4.1 164個の評価

When Professor Lila Maclean is sent to interview celebrated author and notorious cad Damon Von Tussel, he disappears before her very eyes. The English department is thrown into chaos by the news, as Damon is supposed to headline Stonedale University’s upcoming Arts Week.

The chancellor makes it clear that he expects Lila to locate the writer and set events back on track immediately. But someone appears to have a different plan: strange warnings are received, valuable items go missing, and a series of dangerous incidents threaten the lives of Stonedale’s guests.

After her beloved mother, who happens to be Damon’s ex, rushes onto campus and into harm’s way, Lila has even more reason to bring the culprit to light before anything—or anyone—else vanishes.

5つ星のうち5.0 Academic mystery

The Art of Vanishing throws Lila into an uncomfortable situation: trying to get an interview with the notoriously uncooperative but highly regarded writer Damon Von Tussel, who is scheduled to appear during Stonedale’s Art Week festivities. But Damon vanishes, and Lila is cornered into recruiting her mother, artist Violet O, into helping her corral Damon, an embarrassing situation, since Violet and Damon are ex-lovers. Oh, what a girl will do to stay on the tenure track.

At one point Lila mentions that she never had panic attacks until she took up an academic career, reminding me that turning my own education toward commercial ends was a wise decision.

Although there are threats and apparent attacks on various characters, no one is killed. Instead, the mystery turns on academic infighting and fraud (reminding me a bit of Dorothy Sayers). Lila has another run-in with her nemesis, the manipulative Selene, and a much more pleasant meeting with Detective Lex Archer, who suspected her of murder in The Semester of Our Discontent. The descriptions of academic life and the characters populating Stonedale ring true, with sharp wit and humor.

The Art of Vanishing by Cynthia Kuhn is good. Very good.
The settings were short and sweet, but there was enough detail in the 2-3 sentences that you could visualize it. Even descriptions like the windy mountain roads in dialogue. Now that’s something you don’t see too often, description in dialogue. Quite refreshing.
The characters are continuing to grow on me. I like how you can tell the difference between the characters by the language used. If someone is scholarly, they talk scholarly. If someone was a student or a common person, they talked like I do. Even Violet talked like the artist she is. I wish Nate had been in the story more. The one character who disappointed me was Lex (not Cynthia’s fault, it’s just a pet peeve of mine). There were hints of potential romance between him and Lila. Lila does mystery solving so well on her own, can’t we let the cop romance angle go in this series? Just MHO, anyway.
There were not too many new characters, I could keep them all straight.
There was not a lot of exposition, just enough to make the mandatory stuff available to the readers.
The plot was outrageous! I loved all the twists and turns. Every time there was breathing room, Cynthia threw something else at you immediately after, to start the roller coaster again. But like I said, the pace was good, because of all the breathers then the actions. The clues were there, but they were not seen as real clues at the time. But in the end, when the clues were revealed, you say “Oh yeah, I remember that! Dang that was slick!”
I want to see more of the subplot of the struggle being a beginning teacher, and can’t wait for that in the future books. It makes for interesting reading.
I don’t know if there was closure with Gilles and Alonzo (the 2 visitors). They seemed to be secretive about something, but it didn’t come out in the ending. At least not that I noticed (I apologize if I missed it).
And even at the resolution, you were wondering who did what, because everyone was pointing fingers at everyone. It was wrapped up totally neatly.
I give this 4.5 stars only because of me missing my Nate, and the one non-resolved party.

I enjoyed this book. The plot is easily followed and the story was full of all the twists and turns of a great mystery. The main character, Lila, would make a great character to emulate for young women. I definitely recommend this book.

As an African American who used to be married to an Italian and lived in Colorado with children (plural) with blue eyes, please allow me to point out that recessive genes must be carried by both parents, not only by one, to appear in offspring, as is hypothesized regarding this book's one African American. Why do African American parents carry recessive blue-eyed genes? Because of generations of enforced rape during chattel slavery. As a professor who lectured on Beloved while living in Colorado, please allow me to recommend further reading. Perhaps Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, Our Nig, Iola Leroy, or Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man. The Bondwoman's Narrative is also helpful.

I enjoyed this book, especially the setting at a college. The jealousy and back-biting in the English department added interest to the story and helped to make the reader sympathetic to Dr McLean, the protagonist. This was a fun, easy read. A great way to wile away a few hours for fans of intelligent contemporary mysteries. I'm going to the Kindle store now to look up the other books in Kuhn's series.
