Summary

What would you do if you discovered that you were disappearing?

Not physically, but a piece at a time: all tangible evidence that you exist as a person—beginning with your driver's license, bank accounts and your birth certificate...and soon you are a loose thread, being pulled from the fabric of reality—into the twilight of your physical existence.

This is what happens to Wiley Hood, a 25-year-old artist-turned business executive who still struggles with his older brother’s suicide. Creatively blocked for a year since Nick's death, Wiley is suddenly able to paint again—and then, his life begins to unravel and vanish around him. Besieged by visions and nightmares, Wiley is forced to consider the possibility that he has lost his mind...because that is less frightening than the notion that the phenomenon—or whatever awaits him at the end of it—is real.

Frequently hilarious and unsettling—and sometimes frightening—THE DISAPPEARANCE OF WILEY HOOD is a dizzying psychological fantasy in the spirit of The Twilight Zone. It is a trip you will never forget.

A trip into the unexpected

The Disappearance of Wiley Hood is a truly entertaining novel. It's not often I say that about a book that is outside my usual genres...espionage, WWII, occasionally detective. I knew it was going to be a book that ventured into the realms of the unnatural, the weird. What surprised me though, is how much Mark Loeffelholz got me invested into Wiley and the supporting characters before the novel took its turn towards the surreal. And then as things begin to unravel, the narrative becomes even more gripping. The audiobook is very well produced and the narration by Scott Ellis, with occasional interjections by Loeffelholz himself, drew me into the story superbly. I highly recommend it.
