About this listen

A decade ago, the Lullaby Man preyed upon young girls in Tallman's Valley. He stole into their lives, whispered in their ears, spoke of love.

Abby Wakeland was 14 then. Now 24, she's found the courage to tell her mother - Senior Detective Kate Wakeland - about what happened.

The Lullaby Man was her teacher.

What Abby reveals next will lead Kate down dark, twisting tunnels of discoveries that will blow this small town apart.

Really good Australian series

Thoroughly enjoyed this series so far. Excellent plot and detective work in the story line. Just Abi’s voice that grated a bit.

GREAT GREAT GREAT

As always, Anni Taylor has produced an enthralling read yet again. She is my recent 'best author '. Although, the Scottish accent was terrible.

The dreadful Scottish accent unfortunately

I thought the story was good although possibly a little long, I lost interest towards the end but over all a good listen

Good follow up The Last Child

I enjoyed this story and the narration (just struggled a bit with the ‘Scottish’ accent)

twists and intrigue

Another great book by my new found author. I really enjoyed the storyline. It kept me guessing til the end.
Another great performance by Caroline, although the Scottish accent needs some work! can't wait for the next book.

Another very good story

The story and writing are mostly very good. For me there are too many ‘in my chest’ and ‘in my mind’, which probably wouldn’t be as noticeable on the page. But, for me, the appalling Scottish accent of one of the main characters was a blight. It’s far more Irish than Scottish but it’s awful either way. Someone should have noticed it and changed it to Irish in the script!

Book 2

I wouldn’t rate as highly as the first book but still very enjoyable. I wish it was more linked to the previous book but this is a story of its own with the same characters.

Great story

Anni Taylor did a really good job with breaking down the case. I love how everything is connected.

Intriguing story with good setting in a small community

I enjoyed the plot and the way it worked out. This book resolved some of the issues from the previous one. The main detective is a convincing character, and it’s good to have her with a happy family.
On the whole the narrator is good, but her terrible attempt at a Scottish accent is one of the worst I’ve heard, and that’s saying something on Audible! It was almost impossible to listen to, and the German accent was poor as well. That detracted from my enjoyment of the book.
