THE GOD OF THE WOODS by Liz Moore, read by Saskia Maarleveld

Behind the Mic with AudioFile Magazine

Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Kendra Winchester discuss Liz Moore’s fascinating listen brought to life by Saskia Maareleveld. Thirteen-year-old Barbra Van Laar goes missing from her bunk at an Adirondack summer camp in 1975—and her brother vanished from the same location 16 years earlier. Maareleveld explores the impact the disappearances have on the Van Laar family and the surrounding working-class community amid the search for Barbra. She immerses listeners in the mystery, delivering subtle drama as the fallout from both disappearances leads to complications no one expects.
