Picoult has become a master almost a clairvoyant at targeting hot issues and writing highly readable page-turners about them.' Book World Picoult's characters are so compelling that the reader hopes this won't be the last time we meet.' USA Today With Second Glance, international bestselling author Jodi Picoult delivers an intricate and volatile new tale of love and suspense in which an unsolved, decades old murder haunts a small New England town. When a plot of land is being developed in Vermont against the will of a local Native American tribe, strange things begin to happen and Ross Wakeman, a paranormal investigator, is asked to get involved. He's a desperate drifter who's taken up ghost hunting in an effort to cross paths again with his fiancee, who died in a car crash eight years ago, but he has yet to experience anything even remotely paranormal. Then Ross meets Lia . . . As a seventy-year-old murder case is reopened, a shocking secret about a crime of passion long past is revealed. Second Glance, Jodi Picoult's eeriest and most engrossing work yet, is about the things that come back to haunt us literally and metaphorically. Science is pitted against the supernatural, and Picoult examines why we tend to think of science as objective, when it is always at the mercy of those who interpret it. Is fate any more reliable than coincidence? And is love any less real just because it has no scale of measurement? Jodi Picoult's bestselling and widely acclaimed novels include Perfect Match, Salem Falls, Plain Truth, Keeping Faith and The Pact. She lives in New Hampshire with her husband and three children.
