Haunting mystery; vanished sisters, unforgettable summer.

If you're drawn to mysterious disappearances set against the poignant backdrop of adolescence, "The Van Apfel Girls Are Gone" should be next on your list.

With its black humor and sharp observations, this book captures the haunting allure of memories and the pain of lost innocence.
