Description
Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk. Its 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.

Rosalyn Green –
This was a great summer read. It jumps around from the past to the present so if I had to lay it down (which was hard to do), then I would have to backtrack a few pages to refresh details. Otherwise I really liked the plot and all the characters were very interesting.

If you are looking for a book to lug to the beach on your next summer trip, grab this one. It’s really good. Plotted well and the characters are interesting and well drawn. I took my time on this reading journey and never guessed the ending, which is great. Try it next time you’re on your chaise poolside.

Gotta say, any author , who makes a reader read more than 50% of a book before it becomes a bit interesting is not worth their snuff. Sorry, but this book did nothing for me. I will not be reading any more books by Miss Moore!’Dumb ending also. Last words, too many names to keep track of
