Ten years ago, Spenser helped a teenage girl named Mattie Sullivan find her mother's killer and take down an infamous Southie crime boss. Now Mattie - a college student with a side job working for the tough but tender private eye - dreams of being an investigator herself. Her first big case involves a 15-year-old girl assaulted by a much older man at one of Boston's most prestigious private clubs. The girl, Chloe Turner, only wants the safe return of her laptop and backpack. But like her mentor and boss, Mattie has a knack for asking the right questions of the wrong people.

How does McBain keep them coming?
What did you love best about Lullaby?
The cadence of the story, like an old "Drag Net" episode of the 60's. A reader/listener will either like the cast of detectives; a strange group, except Steve Carella, or they will not. Like any detective SERIES, and McBain has a long list of books in his 87th Precinct series, the books get better the more one reads them. But back to the cadence of the story; it is slow and repetitive much like, I would imagine, the real like task of tracking down a killer.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Steve Carella is what all cops should be: a good man, a wonderful husband and father, and one who always gets his killer.
Which scene was your favorite?
A good reader.
Any additional comments?
I would suggest to anyone who does not know this series to start from the first. Knowing the detectives makes this group of mysteries different than others. But be careful; if you enjoy them, if you begin to care about them, you are in for HOURS AND HOURS of story time.

NOT BAD!!
Pretty entertaining book by a very good author. Great narration! There were a lot of characters involved, with more being introduced as we went along, so it was a little bit of a challenge to keep track but, overall, not bad at all. Definitely worth a listen.
