Just One Look

I liked this book written by Harlan Coben. An ordinary snapshot causes a suburban mother’s world to unravel in an instant. When Grace Lawson picks up a newly developed set of family photographs, there is a picture that doesn’t belong – a photo from at least twenty years ago. In the photo are five people; four Grace can’t recognize and one that looks strikingly like her husband, Jack. When Jack sees the photo, he denies he’s the man in it. But later that night, he drives away in the family’s minivan without an explanation, taking the photograph with him. In the days that follow, Grace struggles alone to shield her children from Jack’s absence.
