Look Again: A Novel
(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
Lisa Scottoline breaks new ground in Look Again, a thrilling audiobook that's both heart-stopping and heart-breaking, and sure to have new fans and book clubs buzzing.
When reporter Ellen Gleeson gets a "Have You Seen This Child?" flyer in the mail, she almost throws it away. But something about it makes her look again, and her heart stops—the child in the photo is identical to her adopted son, Will. Her every instinct tells her to deny the similarity between the boys, because she knows her adoption was lawful. But she's a journalist and won't be able to stop thinking about the photo until she figures out the truth.
And she can't shake the question: if Will rightfully belongs to someone else, should she keep him or give him up? She investigates, uncovering clues no one was meant to discover, and when she digs too deep, she risks losing her own life—and that of the son she loves.

- content: When journalist Ellen Gleason finds a striking resemblance between a missing child on a postcard and the son she adopted two years before, her need to know the truth risks destroying every aspect of the life she loves. Short chapters add a mild sense of urgency to the pace of this fairly predictable story, which plods along until the final two-and-a-half hours, when it suddenly races toward an implausibly happy ending. Actress Mary Stuart Masterson's warm, precise voice enlists the listener's sympathy for Ellen, even in her most boneheaded, self-sabotaging moments, and also provides convincing accents for the secondary characters. The production includes a ten-minute interview with the author. A.B.G. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine

Starred review from February 16, 2009
Bestseller Scottoline (Lady Killer
) scores another bull’s-eye with this terrifying thriller about an adoptive parent’s worst fear—the threat of an undisclosed illegality overturning an adoption. The age-progressed picture of an abducted Florida boy, Timothy Braverman, on a “have you seen this child?” flyer looks alarmingly like Philadelphia journalist Ellen Gleeson’s three-year-old son, Will, whom she adopted after working on a feature about a pediatric cardiac care unit. Ellen, who jeopardizes her newspaper job by secretly researching the Braverman case, becomes suspicious when she discovers the lawyer who handled her adoption of Will has committed suicide. Meanwhile, Will’s supposed birth mother, Amy Martin, dies of a heroin overdose, and Amy’s old boyfriend turns out to look like the man who kidnapped Timothy. Scottoline expertly ratchets up the tension as the desperate Ellen flies to Miami to get DNA samples from Timothy’s biological parents. More shocks await her back home. Author tour.

April 27, 2009
Single mother and journalist Ellen Gleeson is unsettled by a “Have You Seen This Child?” flyer that features a child disconcertingly similar to her adopted son. Curiosity compels her to investigate further, and as evidence spirals closer to the truth, Ellen's horror rises as she uncovers broken trails and untimely deaths that may or may not be related to her own situation. As skillful as Scottoline's thriller is, it is enhanced by Mary Stuart Masterson's performance. Her characterizations are distinct and evocative, her tone remains smooth, even while ratcheting up the tension and suspense. Listeners will be wholly absorbed by this moving story. A St. Martin's hardcover (Reviews, Feb. 16).

- content: When Ellen Gleeson, a newspaper reporter in Philadelphia, thinks a child on a missing-child postcard might be her adopted son, her life is turned upside down. Mary Stuart Masterson's narration is uninflected, and her pacing increases with the story's tension. Ellen just can't stop gnawing at the question of her son's adoption, especially when the birth mother and the adoption lawyer are both found dead amid suspicious circumstances. Masterson's voice expresses the crazy feelings that characterize Ellen's uncertainty over whether her adopted son is legally hers. Around and around the questions circle as the tension escalates. As Ellen's world falls apart, Masterson portrays her attempts to put the pieces back together. M.B.K. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
