Praise for Vanishing Act:
“With the determination of a cold case detective, Dan Hampton penetrates the mists of an 80-year-old mystery, revealing the story behind the errant bomber from the fabled Doolittle Tokyo Raiders mission of 1942… It's all there: the technical and operational factors but especially the long-secret geopolitical reasons not even known to Jimmy Doolittle at the time.” –Barrett Tillman, author of Whirlwind: The Air War Against Japan, 1942-1945
