This was a riveting family saga and mystery that I could not put down. Set in the 1970s in the Adirondacks, the Van Laar family own a summer home and a summer camp program. Tragically their young son, Bear disappeared in 1961 while hiking with his grandfather. He was never seen again. Fourteen years later, Barbara, Bear's sister also vanishes from the camp. The story is very descriptive and partially reads like a survival guide. We are introduced to many different characters from the camp counselor, the flawed family of the Van Laars, Tracey who is Barbara's campmate, TJ the camp director and Judyta the female police inspector. This fast-paced novel was very well written. I highly recommend! I received a complimentary eBook from the publisher in exchange for a review. ( ) It’s rare when solid writing and a great, page-turning thriller with believable, well-drawn characters coalesce, but Liz Moore has done it (again) with The God of the Woods. In 1975, Barbara Van Laar disappears from her cabin at camp — a camp owned by her family and just down the road from their estate in the Adirondacks. It’s also the same place her brother disappeared from 14 years earlier. Seamlessly moving between times and characters, Moore follows the later investigation through a young female investigator — the first in the state — while sprinkling information from the 1961 incident. Any reader who enjoys thrillers and family sagas should reach for The God of the Woods as soon as possible — they will not be disappointed. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Some said it was tragic, what happened to the Van Laars. Some said the Van Laars deserved it. That they never even thanked the searchers who stayed out for five nights in the freezing forest trying to help find their missing son. Some said there was a reason it took the family so long to call for help. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
