Edison Public Library cardholders are invited to embark on a tale of thrilling twists and disturbing disappearances with Liz Moore, author of the New York Times bestselling novel The God of the Woods, at 7:00pm on Wednesday, January 28.
It's August 1975 when a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk and Barbara Van Laar—the 13-year-old daughter of the family that owns the camp—missing. This isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared; Barbara’s older brother similarly vanished 14 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’s multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances.
Register today to be part of the discussion and to submit questions for Moore, who is also the author of the New York Times-bestselling novel Long Bright River as well as The Words of Every Song, Heft, and The Unseen World. |
