Fingerprints #2: Haunted

After nearly being killed in "Gifted Touch" (#1), Rae Voight now seems to have another unidentified enemy, one that abducts her 13-year-old friend, Jesse Beven. Everyone else believes he ran away--including his mother--, but Rae and her friend, Anthony Fascinelli, seriously doubt he?s run away, especially not after the psychic clues Rae picks up while reading other people?s fingerprints. These clues take Rae, Anthony, and Yana Savari (another one of Rae?s pals) on an overnight trip to New Orleans, Louisiana, where they hope to find Jesse?s abusive, estranged father, the man they believe may have stolen Jesse. However, when their lead doesn?t produce Jesse, the threesome is forced to start over, this time interviewing new witnesses with conflicting memories of what happened to Jesse that day. Among the five stories that are given, which one can Rae rely on? Because this time it?s not just her own life at stake--Jesse might die if she doesn?t find him in time."Haunted" is the first book I?ve read so far in this series. I was quite impressed with this book and hope the others are just as good. Fingerprints is definitely a not-to-be-missed series if you like paranormal teen thrillers.

This was a great fast read. I enjoyed this edge of the seat thriller a lot. Rae is finally getting the swing of things, with Anthoneys help. If you liked the first book, you will love this one. And the third one is even better...

OK, so now that you've read Fingerprints #1-Gifted Touch, go to the bookstore, buy book #2, read it. It's just as good as the first. Rae Voight is just getting used to her powers. Now how do you make a series about a girls who can read fingerprints more suspenseful than that? Add two people that are trying to kill her. Only Rae thinks that there is only one. And the one who kidnaps Rae's friends Jesse is not the same one that sets up a pipe bomb in the girl's bathroom as the reader will learn, but Rae doesn't. Rae has to find Jesse before it's too late, but Rae may be in more danger than she knows. This book gets an A+, and by the way, I didn't even read any mysteries before I read this series.

Rae Voight is still trying to deal with the weirdness of being able to read other people's thoughts by touching their fingerprints - and trying to deal with the very real fact that someone has tried to kill her and may do so again. When Jesse, a kid from her therapy group, disappears, Rae is worried - and so is Anthony, who knows Jesse would never run away. So Rae and Anthony team up to try and find Jesse, with the help of Rae's friend Yana and Rae's amazing - and unwanted - ability. But someone is lurking in the shadows - determined to push Rae to the breaking point, someone who has snatched Jesse to get at her, someone with a twisted scheme of revenge - all because of the horrifying events sixteen years ago that tore Rae's mother away from her forever. This was a thrilling continuation of the Fingerprints series, although I thought book #1 was a bit better.

In Haunted Jesse gets kidnapped except everyone thinks that he's run away. But Anthony knows better than that because Jesse would never leave without telling him. Together Anthony and Rae search for clues as to where he was kidnapped. You find out that the evil person behind all this has a special power too. The whole book is full of Anthony, Rae, and Yana(Rae's friend) going on a wild goose chase searching for Jesse. It may be a wild goose chase but you learn a lot about each character more. This book was really good even though the first one was better. I would recommend this to anyone. I can't wait till Trust Me comes out in June.
