We study the ground-state and finite-temperature magnetic properties of an interlayer frustrated J1 − J2 − Jc Heisenberg model on three-dimensional honeycomb lattice by employing the Schwinger boson mean-field theory, focusing on the low-energy physics in In3Cu2VO9. We find that with the increase of interlayer coupling Jc from 0 to 3.6 meV, the interlayer frustrated system transits from an antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase to a state with intralayer AFM order and interlayer disorder. This spin disordered phase explains not only the intralayer phase transition at TN = 38 K, but also the qualitative behaviors of the intermediate-temperature specific heat and magnetic susceptibility of In3Cu2VO9
