It was just as I finsihed my school that I rushed to library to get a fresh batch of interesting reads, having ignored them for almost a month. All the books that I have read till date have mostly been fiction and full of emotions, and rarely have been mysterious and thrillers; up until this book. Having finished my exams, my mood craved for thrill and suspense and ‘Look Again’ by Lisa Scottoline came along.

This story revolves around Ellen and her three year old adopted son Will. Coming home from a tired day at work Ellen scans through her mail by almost throwing away the ‘Have you seen this child’ flyer. She would have had if the face staring at her dint seem too familiar. With a deadline looming over her to submit her assignment at work she forgets about the flyer only to be reminded brutally by fate.

Whats seems the face of the boy on the flyer the parents of whom were begging to call them on seeing him; looked very much like Will. With her mind pleading her to over look the similarity between the boys, the journalist in her demands the truth to be discovered. With investigations opening new doors, the ones which were firmly closed long back; the reality shakes up and no more matches the findings.

With the knowledge that Will was legally adopted and no one can take him away from her, she sets out on a expedition to claim back her peace and Will only to discover herself been a  part of a play set three years ago, which will uproot her life in its going. She loves her son dearly, but she also owes him the truth .. What will she do ?
