August 1975: The wealthy Van Laar banking family has set up a summer camp in the middle of the great outdoors in upstate New York. For years, children and young people have been enjoying the great outdoors, exuberant games and carefree fellowship here. However, the beautiful summer forests in the Adirondack Mountains can quickly become threatening. Especially when the call goes out for "survival week" with minimal equipment and food. When thirteen-year-old Barbara disappears, panic breaks out. Rumors quickly spread about the "witch" or the "slasher" who could be responsible. But Barbara is not the first to disappear.
With The God of the Forest,Liz Moore has written a "top-class literary thriller" (The Guardian) that not only tells of social inequality and dark family secrets, but also of the struggle for female self-determination. German text: Marleen Lohse, Mod.: Alf Mentzer
