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 isnt just any thirteen-year-old: shes the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the regions residents. And this isnt the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbaras 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, Moores multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances. It is Liz Moores most ambitious and wide-reaching novel yet.
