A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
JIMMY FALLON SUMMER READS WINNER
ONE OF BARACK OBAMA'S FAVORITE READS OF SUMMER 2024
“The God of the Woods should be your next summer mystery.” —The Washington Post
“Extraordinary... Reminds me of Donna Tartt’s 1992 debut, The Secret History... I was so completely immersed in a rich fictional world that I barely came up for air for hours.” —Maureen Corrigan, Fresh Air, NPR
“Riveting from the first page to the last breathless word.” —Rebecca Makkai, New York Times bestselling author of I Have Some Questions For You
When a teenager disappears from her Adirondack summer camp, two worlds collide.
In the early morning of August 1975, a camp counselor finds an empty bunk. Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, is 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 local residents. This isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has vanished—Barbara’s older brother disappeared fourteen years ago and was never found.
As a frantic search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds. Delving into the complex secrets of the Van Laar family and the working-class community that exists in its shadow, Moore’s multi-layered narrative invites readers into a captivating saga of hidden truths and second chances. This is Liz Moore’s most ambitious and expansive novel to date.
