Look Again

By: Lisa Scottoline

Narrated by: Mary Stuart Masterson

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

Look Again

I love Lisa Scottoline and almost everything she has written has been fabulous. The narration by Mary Stuart Masterson was awesome - great story line - keep 'em coming, Lisa!

Disappointed.

Because the Reader is an actor I expected the narration to have a little more personality and inflection. It seems like the reader was just trying to speed through the story as fast as she sure could.The story was good otherwise.

Good but....

Interesting story idea. Narration was very good and kept you involved. I don't want to be a spoiler, so I'll just say the ultimate resolution was so contrived that it made the basic storyline itself unbelievable. Also, some major characters were merely cliches -- the workplace rival who undercuts and betrays the heroine, the boss love interest. However, the book presents an interesting moral question, and is well-suited for a lazy summer read.

Favorite Book

This is an awesome book. It has so many twists and turns. Once you think you have it figured out.....think again!

Good enough

I liked the idea of the story line,but it was fairly predictable, would have enjoyed more mystery.

Look Again...Listen Twice

Excellent narration and story. A Scottoline winner.

Sweet story with exciting twists and turns

I really enjoyed this story. I love Lisa Scotoline. This was anew story yet she did a fantastic job. Through out, I was angry at times, sad at times, and happy in the end. I don’t want to be a spoiler, so I will just say it is a great read, and the narrator Mary Stewart Masterson does an excellent job of story telling.

Great story

Love love love this book. Having lost three children I identified with women in the book. Loved the ending will listen to again.

good story. end predictable,

story good. didn't like Wills voice at first but got used to it. I had figured that the test would somehow change the end

interesting story

All the twists and turns of the story work out in the end. Might be a little too tidy but everyone loves a happy ending.
