At age 20, Christopher Knight disappears. Oddly, his family never reports him missing; they figure he’s somewhere doing his own thing. Meanwhile—for 27 years—the residents of North Pond, Maine, deal with an endless rash of thefts of food, propane, and other household items. The elusive burglar lives a life of solitude in the dense woods. His ingenious home set up and survival skills are remarkable. This is a compelling exploration by the author who approaches the story with sensitivity.
