This expertly paced thriller has the kineticism of a well-crafted miniseries. The New Yorker
When a teenager vanishes from her Adirondack summer camp, two worlds collide
Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk. Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn t just any thirteen-year-old: she s the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region s residents. And this isn t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara s older brother similarly vanished fourteen years ago, never to be found.
As a panicked search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds. Chasing down the layered secrets of the Van Laar family and the blue-collar community working in its shadow, Moore s multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances. It is Liz Moore s most ambitious and wide-reaching novel yet.
