Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn\u2019t just any thirteen-year-old: she\u2019s the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region\u2019s residents. And this isn\u2019t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara\u2019s 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\u2019s multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances.
