I've yet to read a Liz Moore book that I didn't absolutely adore. She crafts characters and atmosphere in equal captivating measure, allowing the details that shape the overlapping mysteries of Barbara and Bear Van Laar's disappearances to slowly leak out, the prime suspect changing with each turn of the page. If this is the book that earns Moore even more fans, I'm all for it.
