Steven Kubacki, PhD, is a clinical psychologist, mountaineer, and former academic professor, department chair, clinical director, and Fulbright-Hays Scholar, whose name became internationally known after his mysterious disappearance near Lake Michigan in 1978. After vanishing without a trace for fifteen months, Kubacki reappeared with no memory of the lost time--an event that has fueled decades of speculation, conspiracy theories, and viral internet fascination. Despite media attention, Kubacki remained silent about his disappearance for over four decades. Now, in his long-awaited memoir, he offers a firsthand account of the mystery that captivated millions. Drawing from his professional background in psychology, Kubacki examines his own experience through scientific, philosophical, economic, political, and metaphysical lenses. He is also the co-author of Meta-Mathematical Foundations of Existence, a theoretical exploration of mathematics, consciousness, and cosmology. He currently resides in Seattle, Washington. stevenkubacki.com Dylan James Quarles is a bestselling novelist and a 2021 Best Indie Book Award (BIBA) winner for his most recent novel, There Be Monsters.

""The Disappearance may read like a tragic comedy, but at its heart it is a timely tale about desperation, revolutionary dreams, and a journey to triumph over the darkness that lies within us all."" --Jonathan Evison, New York Times bestselling author ""An intriguing account of a man who disappeared, then reappeared...beautifully written, deeply self-reflective, tantalizing, and layered with levels of mystery. Things are not always as they appear, as Steven Kubacki wrestles with what happens to him (and with his own actions) and strives to make sense of it all."" --Alan Tjeltveit, psychology professor emeritus at Muhlenberg College ""The Disappearance is Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol on acid with hints of Carlos Castaneda, Jack Kerouac, and the wandering, road-hungry Woody Guthrie. Our protagonist, Steve Kubacki (Ebenezer Scrooge), is redeemed just as he was becoming Nathan (Jacob Marley). In terms the Beat poets and Timothy Leary fans would understand (but Dickens might wonder at), Kubacki was restored and lifted to a higher plane of human existence by finding the holy grail: interdependence in others. The resulting outflowing of compassion, the loss of the exaggerated self, the palpable celebration and triumph of agape love, make the conclusion inspiring."" --Linden DeBie, PhD, author of Dorian, Rip's Knickerbockers, Speculative Theology and Common-Sense Religion, and several edited works on American religion and philosophy ""Steve Kubacki wrote the most intriguing book... I really immersed myself in this book and this must-read story that leads to questioning how much of reality we really understand, and what choices we have in shifting out of the states of illusion we are in now to living a life filled with light."" --Sandra Ingerman, MA, international shamanic teacher and author of thirteen books, including Soul Retrieval ""It takes immense courage to revisit and share such personal experiences, even more so after decades of silence. Steven's willingness to illuminate that lost chapter of his life with raw honesty and philosophical depth speaks volumes about his commitment not only to the truth, but also to inspiring readers through his story. I'm excited to witness how his journey resonates with the world."" --Tisha Shull, LCMHC, international trainer for the Internal Family Systems (IFS) Institute
