Story
The discovery of a dead infant in an Amish barn shakes Lancaster County to its core. But the police investigation leads to a more shocking disclosure: Circumstantial evidence suggests that 18-year-old Katie Fisher, an unmarried Amish woman believed to be the newborn's mother, took the child's life. When Ellie Hathaway, a disillusioned big-city attorney, comes to Paradise, Pennsylvania, to defend Katie, two cultures collide - and for the first time in her high-profile career, Ellie faces a system of justice very different from her own.

Publisher's Summary
"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 (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?

Not Great
I think this is one of those books that really could have benefitted by having multiple narrators. It would have been nice to have all the characters have their own voices. I am by no means criticizing Mr. Guidall. I think he did a fabulous job but this book was really really hard to get through for me and honestly this is the first time I have experienced that. It was very very slow and only picked up in my opinion near the end which for many would be way too late.

If you're a huge fan of Jodi Picoult like I am, you may be somewhat underwhelmed by this offering.
That said, her not-the-best writing is still much better than most of the other authors out there.

Not for me
I gave this book 2 tries and gave up after the second. The narrator is excellent but the words in the story are, for naught of a better word, airy fairy. There are so many leads in and out of the story that to be honest, it did not hold my attention in the least, in fact I fell asleep twice! If after the first hour I could not give this book my attention or grab onto it, then it was not for me.
