Book Description

9 Sep 2011

What should have been a happy family day out quickly becomes a nightmare…

The chilling debut from a bright new talent.

What should have been a happy family day out quickly turns into a nightmare for Jess Finnegan. One minute she is thankful for a few minutes' peace away from the demands of motherhood. The next she is frantically searching for husband Mickey and 8-month old Louis.They have disappeared, nowhere to be seen. As the police launch a massive manhunt, Jess's panic intensifies.

Then Mickey is found, badly beaten – and alone. Where is Louis? Is he still alive? Could he be the victim of child trafficking or something much closer to home? Just how well does Jess know her new husband? And when her wayward brother turns up out of the blue, what is he after? As the investigation unravels, Jess discovers that the people closest to you are not always what they seem…

5.0 out of 5 stars This lullaby will keep you wide awake 11 Nov 2007
Format:Paperback
This book is unputdownable. Crime fiction is often predictably macho but this one combined an artfully constructed plot with a raw and plausible account of a young mother's psychological torment. It kept me guessing until the very end. The fact that it is narrated, at breakneck speed, by the lead character, Jess, draws you into her slightly paranoid mindset and makes you suspect, along with her,that anyone and everyone might have some involvement in the disappearance of cherubic baby Louis. It made a refreshing change to unravel the crime in the company of a vulnerable (and eminently fallible) young woman, instead of the usual gritty/flawed/recovering alcoholic detectives that crime fiction is littered with. I can't wait for her next book.

4.0 out of 5 stars A compelling page-turner 30 Oct 2007
Format:Paperback
Lullaby is a cracking read. The characters are real in your mind as you're introduced to them, and the utter fear and gut-wrenching sickness that Jess feels throughout her quest is palpable. Claire Seeber paints her backdrops for the story beautifully, and the pace turns the pages quickly. If you have the luxury of time, read it from start to finish in as few hits as possible - it's annoying to have to stop and close this book, just because you really should get on with things...

5.0 out of 5 stars a real page-turner 12 Nov 2007
By iamamy
Format:Paperback
i loved it! i couldn't put this book down, and even looked forward to getting on the tube to work so that I'd have a chance to read it. A really gripping thriller, with so many possibilities you really don't know who's involved to the very end.
very readable.
