The Vanishing Act

A magic trick was supposed to make Will disappear. No one expected it to actually work.

When third-grader Will steps into a vanishing cabinet at his church talent show, he doesn't come out backstage. Instead, he finds himself pulled into another Catacombs Mystery.

He and his friend Molly are transported back to ancient Egypt, where baby Moses's basket has been swept away from the reeds and into the rushing Nile. If they can't get it back before Pharaoh's daughter arrives, history may be changed forever.

Armed with an unexpected set of tools and a lot of courage, the friends must build a raft, brave the wild river, outsmart a Nile crocodile, and discover that sometimes the only way to accomplish something impossible is to work together.

The Vanishing Act brings the story of Moses to life through mystery, humor, history, and page-turning adventure. Young readers encounter Jochebed, Miriam, the Nile, and the rescue of baby Moses while exploring themes of courage, problem-solving, and trusting God.

Perfect for independent readers, family read-alouds, Christian schools, Sunday school classrooms, homeschool studies, church libraries, and grandparents looking for engaging faith-filled fiction.

The second book in the six-book Catacombs Mysteries series, The Vanishing Act can be enjoyed as part of the series or as an adventure on its own.

Adventure. Mystery. History. Faith.
