Join fellow readers at the Library for an engaging discussion of God of the Woods by Liz Moore on Tuesday, June 24th at 7:30 p.m.

In the early morning of August 1975, a camp counselor notices that a bunk is empty. The occupant, Barbara Van Laar, is missing. Barbara is not an ordinary thirteen-year-old; she is the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs many members of the local community. This is not the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared—Barbara’s older brother went missing fourteen years ago and was never found. As a frantic search ensues, a compelling narrative unfolds, revealing the complex secrets of the Van Laar family and the working-class community that operates in its periphery.
