About the book:

Early morning, August 1975, a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk.  This 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 painful search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds.  Chasing down the layered secrets of the Van Laar family and the blue-collar community working in its shadows, Moore’s multithreaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances.
