Özet
This breathtaking novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Jodi Picoult asks: Do we love across time, or in spite of it?

“Sometimes I wonder....Can a ghost find you, if she wants to?”

An intricate tale of love, haunting memories, and renewal, Second Glance begins in current-day Vermont, where an old man puts a piece of land up for sale and unintentionally raises protest from the local Abenaki Indian tribe, who insist it’s a burial ground. When odd, supernatural events plague the town of Comtosook, a ghost hunter is hired by the developer to help convince the residents that there’s nothing spiritual about the property.

Enter Ross Wakeman, a suicidal drifter who has put himself in mortal danger time and again. He’s driven his car off a bridge into a lake. He’s been mugged in New York City and struck by lightning in a calm country field. Yet despite his best efforts, life clings to him and pulls him ever deeper into the empty existence he cannot bear since his fiancée’s death in a car crash eight years ago. Ross now lives only for the moment he might once again encounter the woman he loves. But in Comtosook, the only discovery Ross can lay claim to is that of Lia Beaumont, a skittish, mysterious woman who, like Ross, is on a search for something beyond the boundary separating life and death. Thus begins Jodi Picoult’s enthralling and ultimately astonishing story of love, fate, and a crime of passion.

Hailed by critics as a “master” storyteller (The Washington Post), Picoult once again “pushes herself, and consequently the reader, to think about the unthinkable” (Denver Post). Second Glance, her eeriest and most engrossing work yet, delves into a virtually unknown chapter of American history—Vermont’s eugenics project of the 1920s and 30s—to provide a compelling study of the things that come back to haunt us—literally and figuratively. Do we love across time, or in spite of it?

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and narration, the way the characters weaved together. I’m only sorry it’s finished

Excellent story

Big fan of Jody Picoult and this didn’t disappoint- even when I guessed early on how the characters were linked it didn’t make this any less gripping as a story - in fact I couldn’t stop listening just to get to the point when everyone in the book realised too!!

Loved it

The escape from the world where I currently live was welcome, just when I needed it.

The book begins with lots of characters intertwining like the threads of a beautifully weaved Persian carpet, with the final product being perfect. As per usual Ms. Picoult wrote a fantastic, beautiful book with some amazing facts that makes one think about humankind and it's ethics. Highly recommend!!!

AMAZING AS PER USUAL!

Fascinating information about ghosts and eugenics. I would love to know more about Jodi’s research for this one.

Another great work by Picoult
