Most Wanted by Lisa Scottoline

This author has written many novels and I have read most of them. Titles that you may recognize include Look Again, Come Home,and Think Twice. I think this title is one of her best.

The premise of the story is that Christine and her husband Marcus have been trying to have a baby with much difficulty. Eventually, they make the decision to use a donor. Christine becomes pregnant and both she and her husband are overjoyed. One day, while watching television, she sees a news story about a man being arrested as a serial killer. She observes a similarity in the looks of her baby's donor and the man who has been arrested.

Christine and Marcus become involved in lawsuits and investigative work to uncover the truth.Taking the reader through endless interviews and legal approaches, the author motivates the reader to become embroiled in the story line. It was almost a disappointment when the book ended.

There are questions in the back of the book which provide great take-off points for a good discussion.

Ladybookbug!
