Two years since his last volume of writings (No New Notifications) Bennyness returns with just as much cynicism, confusion, hope and self-deprecation as before. However, this time there is a darkness beginning to break through as Bennyness lives two years of his life moving houses, fighting the mumps, misplacing his affection again, enjoying (and sometimes not enjoying) music, being embarrassed by his sister and wishing for a simpler life.

Winner of the Raz/Shumaker Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Fiction, Vanished tells the stories of women and girls in upstate New York who are often overlooked or unseen by the people around them. The characters range from an aging art professor whose students are uninterested in learning what she has to teach, to a young girl who becomes the victim of a cruel prank in a swimming pool, to a television producer who regrets allowing her coworkers into her mother’s bird-filled house to film a show about animal hoarding because it will reveal too much about her family and past. Humorous and empathetic, the collection exposes the adversity in each character’s life; each deals with something or someone who has vanished—a person close to her, a friendship, a relationship—as she seeks to make sense of the world around her in the wake of that loss.
What's an Inquisitor to do when she's not even sure she has a victim...? Now chief of the Whitewitch Island police department, if temporarily, Georgia is called on to intervene when a disturbance has her investigating at The Acropolis Hotel. Accusations fly about a missing girl her mother claims is dead, while the owner's nephew makes it clear he doesn't respect Georgia's authority or anyone else's for that matter. But when one of their number turns up dead alongside an older death that looks far too similar to be a coincidence, Georgia and Benny fall down a deep, dark rabbit hole of lies, deceit, double-crossing and homicide, among other criminal activities. But will they have to resort to magic to unravel the truth before the killer gets away with murder?
