Publisher's summary

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.

Critic reviews

“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.” —AudioFile

“Narrated by actress Mary Stuart Masterson, Look Again is a suspenseful story that tugs at the heart, as listeners follow Ellen's determined search to uncover Will's mysterious history, raising questions of where he belongs--and who he belongs to.” —Kirkus Reviews

“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.” —Publishers Weekly

Strident narrator

This was an excellent story, but unfortunately the narrator's voice was way too loud and expressed too much heavy drama.

Change of pace for Scottoline!!

Wow, what a rollercoaster ride! This is a must listen, audio brings it all alive. She changed her pace, changed her characters. Very good narration from Mary Stewart Masterson. I wish more writers would do this. She still gets an A for this work. Keep it up Lisa we are all your fans. What's next?

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

Most interesting: That what happened to the main character could totally happen in real life.
Least??? Well, I cant think of one specifically. It was kinda slow - thats my biggest gripe~

Well written with lots of suspense!

I really liked this book as it portrayed a situation that is possible. It really made one think about what one would do in that situation. Several interesting twists to the story!
