Look Again by Lisa Scottoline

The premise for this book, "Look Again" was very intriguing.  What if you saw your adopted child's picture on a "missing" ad?  What would you do?  This novel was a good read, and I did like it, however, I thought the character development was a bit off.  Ellen could have been any mother on the face of this earth, and I found myself wanting to know more about her.  It is somewhat suspenseful and I found myself anxious to find out answers to the mystery.  All in all a good read.
 
SYNOPSIS by Barnes & Noble
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.

RATING 3 STARS
