This was a great book - a little bit different from most Lisa Scottoline books, but great!! Also it was so real, we all see those cards that say "Have you seen this child?" and this just follows through on that idea.

I think this was one of the best books she has written. Totally enjoyed it and did not want to put it down until I was finished. Kept me guessing until the end.

What a terrible dilemma for a Mother to find herself involved in. The author kept me involved and wondering from the first chapter and throughout this heart rendering story. I was rooting for her to take action and then hoping that she would simply cool it and drop her personal investigation. Danger and risk along with romance balanced this endearing mystery. Loved being involved with "Look Again". Will trust Lisa Scottoline to deliver great and original stories

I loved this book. Every parent who has ever adopted a child would really identify with this heart wrenching book.

I am the grandma to an adopted boy, and reading this book made me so thankful it was an open adoption, until I read that the baby's mother may not be the baby's real mother. Then I felt my heart breaking...

Perhaps I've been spoiled by some of the better crime and/or mystery writers but I was deeply disappointed by this. So disappointed, in fact, that I virtually fast forwarded through chapters (I listen in my car during my commute) and did not miss a beat in the story-line. If you're looking for a quick, beach type, book then this will fit the bill nicely.

By Lisa Scottoline Narrated by Mary Stuart Masterson
I loved the suspense! Oh! And the twists! Wow! Exciting book! I totally recommend it!
The story starts when Ellen gets a missing child flyer in the mail that looks just like her 3 year old. How is that possible? He's her son; she rescued him from the ICU. He was abandoned by his mother; had a heart condition and required a lot of extra care; the nurses assumed it was too much for the young mother.
Ellen met Will when he was a year old while she was doing a story. She loved him from the moment his beautiful eyes met hers; she was drawn back to the hospital to visit every day, sometimes more and once a day. It didn't take long for her to start the adoption process. The biological mother and father signed away their rights and he was hers. It was almost too easy; as smooth as an adoption can be. My father used to tell me "if something seems too good to be true, that's probably because it isn't;" I know simple advice, but true on so many occasions.
Once Ellen see's the flyer, she can't get it out of her mind; she loves her son so much; she can't imagine life without him, but she knows doing the right thing isn't always easy. The toughest decision a mother will ever have to make is weighing on her shoulders. Should she go to the cops? Should she learn all she can about the lost boy first? Should she just say nothing and keep him to herself?
Luckily, this mother was also a reporter, and her reporter instincts took over; she researched, regardless of where to or how long she had to travel for answers, she would stop at nothing. However, some questions are better left unanswered. Ellen uncovers a truth that is unbelievable. The suspense, action and mystery blew my mind.
Overall, this was a great story! I had the audio version, narrated by Mary Stuart Masterson; so you know the narration was perfect! I found myself leaving early for appointments so I could listen to more while I waited. Finally, I had to bring it in and listen to it while cleaning. I had to find out what happened and could NOT wait! This is a 5+ boundless star book. I absolutely loved it!
On a personal note, even being in the process of starting an adoption, I still loved it! LOL! It didn't scare me away.

Loved this story! Mary Stuart Masterson does a great job of narrating, and the plot keeps you interested until the very end. Only 5 disks, so you don't have to wait forever to get through it. Highly recommended!
