Synopsis
Do we love across time? Or in spite of it? A developer has slated an ancient Abenaki Indian burial ground for a strip mall, and now strange happenings have tiny Comtosook, Vermont, talking of supernatural forces at work. Ross Wakeman is a ghost hunter who's never seen a ghost-all he's searching for is something to end the pain of losing his fiance Aimee in a car accident. He tried suicide-any number of times. Now Ross lives only for a way to connect with Aimee from beyond. Searching the site for signs of the paranormal, Ross meets the mysterious Lia, who sparks him to life for the first time in years. But the discoveries that await Ross are beyond anything he could dream of in this world-or the next. Expertly entwining a powerful drama of the heart's redemption and the disturbing real-life history of the VT eugenics project of the 1930s, Second Glance asks if truth is always something that can be measured… and if what can be measured is indeed always true. http://www.jodipicoult.com/second-glance.html

Oooh, that sounds GOOD! I'm going to have to read it. I am so glad you and Donna are posting books to read. THANK YOU!
that sounds like a good book! will have to check it out.
Looks interesting... is it creepy? When are you coming home? If you wait much longer, it won't even be summer anymore (ha ha).
It does sound a little creepy. Is it? I think I feel like a little creepy would be fun right now.
Man my book list just keeps getting longer and longer.
There are parts that are a bit creepy. But, it didn't creep me out as much as I thought it would. I'm very easily creeped out too, so I was surprised. I even started reading the book over at the lake house which is over 100 years old and there are houses over there that are rumored to be haunted (our place is not, however). Still . . . it was a creepy setting to start the book.
Oooh, I've been wanting to try this author! I'll start with this one! :)
