A ridiculous story, focusing on a group of spoiled women having adventures. I might have actually finished this book if I had it in a print version, where I could skim through all the boring dialogue, but all I had was an audio version.
So far, they haven't shown any intelligence in solving problems, leaving it to Charles' "operatives", and Maggie's informants.

I read this book on the recommendation of my sister who has read the entire series. This book was number 15 in the Sisterhood Series.
Summery: It wasn't that hard to catch on to what was going on. Here's what I figured out: There is a group of women, known as the Sisterhood, who have done something so bad that they have to hide out at a mountainside retreat. Only a pardon from the president will allow them to be free. Money does not seem to be a problem. There are also a group of people in normal society who are strong supporters. This includes high level people and some sexy men.
From time to time the Sisters become involved in a mission helping people who have suffered at the hands of others. The Sisters put things right and seek show more revenge.
In Vanishing Act the Sisters become involved when one of their outside partners is completely wiped out due to identity theft. They learn the masterminds of this identity theft ring is a very clever couple who change names and disguises on a daily basis. The goal of the Sisters is to figure out who else has been robbed, determine the best way to capture the couple and how to get the money back to the victims.
My evaluation: It was easy and fun to get caught up in this story. I read it off and on at the dentist's but then had to keep turning the pages until I knew what was going to happen next. While it was fun to read I had to keep telling my "inner-scoffer" to go away. This is similar to reading a "super-hero" story. Things that happen in the story could in no way happen in real life. If you like your thrillers to be completely possible, this series is not for you. show less

This book has an insane amount of characters. It is hard to keep track of every one and their relationships to each other. The central mystery about a gang of identity thiefs was interesting, but very convoluted. The efforts to find and capture the bad guys took a lot of people and a lot of coordination of activities. The book has a fantasy like atmosphere in that there appears to be an unlimited amount of money to carry out the Sisterhood's plans.
..sigh... I absolutely love this series of books. To find I'd somehow missed a couple in recent months (so many books out there!) had me giddy with anticipation. Fern Michaels never disappoints...even my husband loves these books!
In this book of the sisterhood they deilt with Identity theft. Becouse one of their friend was hit. So they hunt them down and tookthem down.
