Most Wanted

By: Lisa Scottoline

Narrated by: Julia Whelan

Donor 3319 profile: tall. Blonde. Blue eyes. Medical student. Wanted for serial murder.

Christine Nilsson and her husband, Marcus, are desperate for a baby. Unable to conceive, they find themselves facing a difficult choice they had never anticipated. After many appointments with specialists, endless research, and countless conversations, they make the decision to use a donor.

Two months pass, and Christine is happily pregnant. But one day she is shocked to see a young blond man on the TV news being arrested for a series of brutal murders - and the blond man bears an undeniable and uncanny resemblance to her donor. Delving deeper to uncover the truth, Christine must confront a terrifying reality and face her worst fears.

Riveting and fast paced, with the depth of emotionality that has garnered Lisa Scottoline legions of fans, Most Wanted poses an ethical and moral dilemma: What would you do if the biological father of your unborn child was a serial killer?

Critic reviews

"Spellbinding. Another tour de force from Scottoline. It drew me in, in a single breath." (Mary Kubica, best-selling author of The Good Girl)

Good story well worth buying

I'm so often disappointed with these books especially if it's a emotional storyline. But this was different; gripping, well organized and the wrong so good you could image each character as you read. Though Audible in general is not the customer friendly Ap it once was, it is the best one out there . But this business of limiting returns...well let's just say I am a customer of most NPR sponsors and O don't feel like they deserve that distinction anymore

Another great narration ...and story!

I've had this book in my wish list for awhile ...the cover had me thinking of sweetie sweetie homely blah blah :/
But, one of my favorite narrators, Julia Whelan, had narrated the book so I decided to give it a try. I am soo glad I did! I really liked the storyline and the characters. Had me guessing right to the end! Every character was well developed. It's hard to pick a favorite character, but I guess it would have to be Griff.
I am so glad tht I got this book! it was a great book!

Jodi Picoult?

This is a book I would have guessed Jodi Picoult had written if I hadn't known better. But I mean that in a good way. I love her books. This was a pleasant surprise and I was sad to see it end. There were no gratuitous language or sexual scenes to distract from the story, although there was a definite 'adult' subject matter given the serial killer backdrop. All in all it's a book I would recommend to young adult readers and up for a great weekend or beach read. Happy Reading!

Intriguing Story

Another very well told story by Ms Scottoline. Her stories never disappoint!!!! Very good story that is unpredictable!

An okay story. Requires suspension of logic.

Would you consider the audio edition of Most Wanted to be better than the print version?

Absolutely not.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

I was interested but not "edge-of-my-seat" interested.

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

No. A little slow moving. And the "male" voice of the protagonist's husband was B-a-d. So, so bad we cringed every time we heard it.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

It would have to be a Lifetime movie of the week. "Nuff said.

Any additional comments?

It is an interesting story. Makes you think twice about choices in infertility treatments - and how unregulated it is.
