Relation In Pursuance Of Books Look Again
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. Lisa Scottoline breaks new ground in Look Again, a thriller that's both heart-stopping and heart-breaking, and sure to have new fans and book clubs buzzing.Declare Containing Books Look Again

I wrote earlier that I found out I had read this book before but did not realize it in the beginning. There are so many books about missing and lost children. I always enjoy books by Lisa Scottoline and this was no exception, even a second time. It's the story of a mother's search for who her adopted son really is and it has a happy ending, so I did enjoy this a lot.This is a story of truth. What is the truth and how does one handle it when the truth hurts more than one can imagine?Ellen Gleeson is a reporter, a single mother and a seeker of truth. When she sees a card with the photo of a missing child on it, she sees the resemblance to her adopted son. Ellen takes off on a truth-seeking mission to discover who her son really is, hers or someone else's? Then will come the question, what shall I do about it?Tracking clues, Ellen keeps running into roadblocks
I really did not like this. The premise of the story was intriguing until it wasn't.
Ellen Gleeson is a busy single mom and newspaper reporter, and despite the fact that layoffs at the newspaper loom on the horizon, ratcheting up the stress another notch, she believes that her life is just about perfect.Rushing home from work one day and eager to face domesticity, she is blindsided by a picture on a small white card one of those missing children advertisements. At first glance, she is sure that the poor lighting of her porch is the explanation. But upon closer inspection, as
I picked this book up somewhere and it's been sitting on my bookshelf for quite some time. I always looked at it and then chose something else, but I was finally out of reading material at home and the library was closed.I should have left it on the shelf.The writing was mediocre at best, but the story was wretched. Adoptive mother Ellen sees a missing child flier in her mailbox, and the age progressed picture looks remarkably like her son, whom she had adopted from the hospital after he was
What a mess. This was my first Lisa Scottoline book, and it'll probably also be my last. This book was just... all over the place. I can't think of a single thing that I can say I actually liked about it, besides the fact that it's over. This book was like being hit over the head with... well, all of the things. My brain is now mush. So, here's what I got out of this book. Ellen Gleeson, a REPORTER, sees a age-progressed missing child picture on one of those cards they send you in the mail, and
I picked this up in the bookstore and didn't want to buy it. I don't like to read books about kids that are a sad story because it hurts too much as a mother to read them. However, I kept coming back to this book, re-reading the cover, telling myself: I can handle it. So I bought it! I DID like this book a lot. I DID get attached to the characters. I only gave it three stars because I thought the story was kind of all over the place. I thought the author could have simplified the same plot -
