This is the 2nd book of the series. It starts off soon after the first book ends. This story is centered around Detective Kate Wakeland's daughter, Abby. Now a grown woman with a child of her own, Abby has a past that she has kept secret from everyone, including her mom. The story surrounds The Lullaby Man. A man who preyed upon young girls. At 14, Abby thought she was in love with an older man but she couldn't understand his weird obsessions. When he ends up dead, she buried that love and confusion only to find it bubbling up to the surface now that she is older.
Really great tale with the same great characters from the previous book and some others added in. The story takes us back to see why Abby ended up having so many issues as a teen. It was a really good (and creepy) backstory. The twists and turns just keep coming at the end. It had my head spinning. Very enjoyable but not quite as good as the first book. I do look forward to reading the next in the series.
