Gone

People of the Earth are vanishing without a trace. At first only a few people disappear, but then the vanishings begin to accelerate leading to huge motorcar pileups, planes falling out of the sky and many other tragedies. Many evangelical Christians believe it is the tribulation that is thought to be referenced in the Holy Bible. Others think there is a more logical scientific explanation. Several people who have been tragically touched by the vanishings join together to help the emergency U.S. government try and find the cause of the phenomenon before a point of no return for the human race is reached.

The story is fast paced with an interesting premise that draws in the reader. An exciting culmination to the story leads to an opening into the second book in the Gone series.
