As the daughter of the wealthy family that owns the camp and the nearby estate, her disappearance is particularly devastating.

Liz Moore masterfully weaves a richly textured drama, blending emotional depth with a compelling mystery. As secrets of the Van Laar family and the surrounding community unravel, readers are drawn into the lives of characters whose fates are irrevocably altered by this summer's events. This ambitious novel explores themes of love, inheritance, identity, and second chances, revealing the tensions between family and community, along with a haunting history of secrets that refuse to fade away.
