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. Everything inside her 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.
When journalist Ellen Gleason finds a striking resemblance between a missing child on a postcard and the son she adopted two years before, her need to know the truth risks destroying every aspect of the life she loves. Short chapters add a mild sense of urgency to the pace of this fairly predictable story, which plods along until the final two-and-a-half hours, when it suddenly races toward an implausibly happy ending. Actress Mary Stuart Masterson's warm, precise voice enlists the listener's sympathy for Ellen, even in her most boneheaded, self-sabotaging moments, and also provides convincing accents for the secondary characters. The production includes a ten-minute interview with the author. A.B.G. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
