From Robert Kolker, the bestselling author of Hidden Valley Road, comes an intimate and gripping work of narrative nonfiction about a large Pennsylvania family with nine siblings, a rare inherited form of dementia, and a fate that none of them chose.

As one sibling after another begins to change, the family realizes that what happened to their mother is happening to them. Formerly devoted parents and driven professionals become people their loved ones barely recognize, and each of their children faces a 50-50 chance of inheriting the same mutation. Alongside their story, Kolker follows the scientific race against dementia, where this family’s rare form of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) may hold the key to breakthroughs in preventing and treating all dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease.

Heartbreaking, deeply human, and surprisingly hopeful, The Vanishing Family reads like a medical detective story and a family saga in one. It explores love, loss, identity, and the difficult choices that come with knowing your own genetic fate.
