  In her first book of poems, Carrie Voigt Schonhoff captures the spirit of her native Wisconsin not only through poignant descriptions of landscape, but in how she reveals the emotional interiors of people and places. This work will resonate deeply with readers who have grown up in Wisconsin and give an insight of what it means to live, survive, prosper, and be a woman of the Midwest. Her characters are drawn from life, and her subjects, not only the experiences that change our lives suddenly, but also those that shape us over long periods and come to define memory.

  James Renner

  In the summer of 1995, at the largest Boy Scout camp in Ohio, a night of sexual violence ended with one counselor dead and another hospitalized. The death was ruled "accidental." It wouldn't be the last death associated with Seven Ranges Reservation. 
   
   
   
  James Renner, too, was a counselor at Seven Ranges that year. He was always sure there must be more to the story of Mike Klingler's death, because Renner also knew firsthand that the 900-acre camp was not the safe getaway it was portrayed to be. On Friday nights the boys were ushered into the woods for a frightening ceremony in which they learned the rules for becoming good young men—and, above all, that keeping secrets was a scout's duty. No matter how dark the secrets were. 
   
   
   
  Determined to face his demons, Renner embarks on a journey back to that tumultuous summer and exposes a clandestine society that left indelible scars on the scouts and the staff who were there. For Renner himself, it meant opening up about his twisted upbringing, his issues with trust and sexuality, and a lifetime of self-medication. The result is a deeply personal, no-holds-barred, and vitally important true crime memoir.
