Snatch Steel versus Book of Moon

Nothing in Ronin on this (I am trying out a new deck against my old deck and these situations are coming up). My face up card is Snatched and I Book it face down. Does it stay on my side of the field if I chain to Snatch Steel (no valid target, I presume the target of snatch must be announced on activation)? If it is already snatched and I Book it does the card return to me or remain controlled by my opponent. If it comes back to me what happens to Snatch Steel and, if so, what happens when Book is turned face up?
 
If you activate "Book of Moon" in a chain with "Snatch Steal", targeting the same monster that was targeted by "Snatch Steal", that monster would be flipped face down and then "Snatch Steal" would have an invalid target and the card would be destroyed.

Thanks. Note to self, do not use book of Moon on a snatched monster except in a chain. I presume the same ruling is true of Call of the Haunted and Premature Burial.
 
Correct. If you "Book of Moon" (or use "Tsukuyomi") to flip a monster face-down that is attached/targeted by "Premature Burial" / "Call of the Haunted" would cause PB to be destroyed / CotH to remain meaninglessly on the field and the monster then would not be destroyed (even if he's flipped face up with CotH meaninglessly on the field... it was already "freed").

Another card that you can use... "Autonomous Action Unit"... that works exactly like "Snatch Steal" in regards to "Book of Moon". You get control of one of your opponent's monsters and then if you BoM it, AAU is destroyed and you retain control of your opponent's monster.
