Join us for our DECEMBER book club! We'll discuss Benjamin Hale's CAVE MOUNTAIN, a true-crime memoir set in the Arkansas Ozarks.
About this Event

In Cave Mountain, Hale uncovers the stunning connections between a decades-old cult M**der and the incredible survival story of his six-year-old cousin, who survived two days lost in the Buffalo National River Wilderness of the Arkansas Ozarks in 2001.

"Enriched by Benjamin Hale’s own family history and the lore of the Arkansas Ozarks, Cave Mountain is a gripping story about nature and survival, religion and skepticism, and good and evil. At its center are two young girls, years apart, both in danger in the verdant wilds of northern Arkansas." - HarperCollins

"The damnedest mixing of true crime, memoir, and maybe (?) ghost story I’ve ever read. The original Harper’s article gave me the shivers, and this deeper dive is going to have me looking over my shoulder on every hike. Unputdownable." - Patton Oswalt

This is a no-pressure book club – didn’t quite finish the book? Come anyway!

Hosted by Linda Hill
