The Vanishing Tycoon
 A Mick & Mack Mystery

Toronto, 1951. A city of rising skyscrapers, smoky jazz clubs, and backroom deals. A city where fortunes are made—and lost—in the blink of an eye.

When Cornelius Whitelaw, the theatre magnate who turned playhouses into palaces, vanishes without a trace just hours after signing away his empire for a cool million, the case has all the makings of a legend. No ransom note. No sign of struggle. Just an empty office, a cryptic note, and a trail of debts and deceit that stretches from high society ballrooms to the dark corners of Toronto’s underworld.

Enter Mick McCathie and Mack MacNeely—two sharp-witted detectives with a knack for trouble and a taste for the unexpected. As they chase ghosts through the city’s grand theatres, smoky speakeasies, and back alleys, they uncover a tangled web of shady land deals, scorned lovers, ruthless bookies, and power brokers who would rather see Whitelaw gone than see him win.

Was the vanishing tycoon playing his own long game? Or did someone make sure his final curtain call was his last?

With razor-sharp banter, twists at every turn, and a city teeming with secrets, The Vanishing Tycoon is a gripping mystery in the grand tradition of classic detective fiction. A story where the past never stays buried, and every clue leads to a truth more dangerous than the last.

Mick and Mack are on the case. But in a city where everyone has a motive, will they find Whitelaw before his enemies do?
