When camp counselor Louise wakes up, she finds herself in a nightmare. Overnight, one of the campers, teenager Barbara, has disappeared and none of her bunkmates know where she has gone. The police are called and a search begins. But there are whispers that the case seems eerily similar to a disappearance that happened a decade ago. The victim? Barbara’s older brother, Bear. Is it just an unfortunate coincidence or is something more sinister going on?
Last year I read Liz Moore’s Bright Young River and it almost made my top 10 books of 2024 so I was excited to read her newest book. The story is told from the perspective of various characters; camp counselor Louise, Barbara’s mother Alice, Barbara’s bunkmate Tracy, detective Judy, and a couple of chapters told from other supporting characters. I mostly enjoyed this layout as I got the thoughts of various characters though there were a few characters’ POV I didn’t think was needed.
The book is well paced, however, despite being almost 500 pages. The atmosphere and feeling of the book was also well done. The story felt creepy and tension filled as the reader tries to uncover the truth about Bear and Barbara. That being said, I wouldn’t necessarily consider this a mystery in the traditional sense. There are no clues really uncovered through a good chunk of the book and the little clues we do get comes in the last 100 pages. Some might find this frustrating but I believe it worked for story.
That being said, the ending and the truth about Bear and Barbara’s disappearances left a bit to be desired. Without giving any spoilers, I will only say that wasn’t as developed as the rest of the story and felt rushed. As a result, I was unable to give this a full five stars.
4 out of 5 stars

I still can’t believe I’m writing this today, but I just have to share my story. After my husband left me, I was completely devastated. We had been together for years, and I couldn’t understand what went wrong. He moved out, stopped communicating, and even started seeing someone else. I tried everything I could think of to make things right, but nothing worked. Then, a close friend told me about Dr. Great, a spiritual spell caster who helps reunite lost lovers. I was skeptical at first, but I was desperate to save my marriage, so I decided to give it a try. I contacted Dr. Great, explained my situation, and he listened patiently. He assured me that he could help restore my marriage — and after 48 hours of him casting the spell, things started to change. Out of nowhere, my husband called me to apologize. He told me he had been thinking a lot about us and wanted to come home. Within a week, he was back, full of love and regret. Since then, our relationship has been stronger than ever. I’m so grateful to Dr. Great for his powerful work and for bringing peace and love back into my life. If anyone out there is going through something similar, don’t give up. There’s hope, and sometimes the right help can make all the difference. Email Dr Great at

Earlier this year, I had a terrible fight with my husband, and he had no choice but to leave the house. And I assumed he was just angry, which made him leave. After a few days, I was unable to contact him or determine his whereabouts. I waited and waited, but he never returned or called me. I was filled with pain and remorse over what happened. I tried everything I could to get him back, but to no avail, until I contacted Dr. Isa, who came to my rescue. He did his love spell work perfectly to reunite us, and my husband, who did not want to return, called exactly after 48 hours, just as Dr. Isa promised. We are both now together..
