“There was a lot of excitement at Jaffe & Neale earlier this year as we were fortunate enough to receive an advanced reading copy of 'The God of the Woods'. And the verdict is that we all loved this book and have been championing it with a big display in the shop since it was published in early July. It ticks all the boxes for a great summer read: an intriguing page-turning mystery, a family riddled with long-held secrets, an atmospheric setting in the Appalachians and some beautifully written prose to hold it all together.”

—————————————————–

From the author of LONG BRIGHT RIVER, a Barack Obama Pick and a New York Times bestseller, comes a once-in-a-generation story; a novel you’ll never forget.

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. That they knew what happened to the boy.

Now, fifteen years later, the daughter the family had in their grief has gone missing in the same wilderness as her brother. Some say the two disappearances aren’t connected.

Some say they are.
