No, there is a nice straight seam a foot or two away that is much more difficult to see. This is rough and uneven, definately a crack.

I just moved into a home that was built in 1968 but underwent an extensive remodel before sale. The previous owner bought the house, added on, remodelled the interior, and sold it without living in the property (flipped it?). I understand that living in the house a short while will reveal flaws you couldn't have noticed during the purchase period, but I'm starting to worry about several cases of what appear to be poor workmanship. And now as the icing on the cake, a crack appeared in the granite countertop in the kitchen! The crack runs from the sink to the front edge (the shortest distance for a crack to appear on the slab). Is there anything I can do? I've read conflicting reports on the internet, but it seems that a crack like this is pretty unlikely. Is it an indicator of a more serious issue?
