lullaby and goodnight

This book was so intence. Any mother would know what I mean. It kept me on the edge of my chair. I've read every book by Wendy Corsi Staub and loved them all. Can't wait till her next one comes out.

Be careful who you trust

Lullaby and Goodnight is another winner by Ms. Corsi Staub. I took this book everywhere I went trying to sneak in a few minutes to read it each hour. It was hard to put down. Once again there is a host of characters that Ms. Corsi Staub creatively ties together in the plot. This is a good summer read.

Like no other lullaby!

I LOVE Wendy Corsi Staub! This book is right up there with the rest of her work; fast paced great mystery with plenty of twists and turns. There are a lot of characters to keep straight but Ms. Staub helps the reader do so effortlessly. The plot keeps trucking right along providing plenty of suspense, just enough romance and a few gasps along the way. A highly recommended read!

A Spine-tingling Story!

Wendy Corsi Staub has written some bone chilling mysteries but this one is by far her best yet. The twists and turns throughout the book will leave you guessing until the last pages. A group of single, pregnant women meet for support. Like in any group, friendships are formed, people are gossiped about. All seems well until the group's members -- pregnant through circumstances as individual as the moms themselves -- begin to disappear one at a time. Then other characters begin to disappear as well. On the surface it appears as though the disappearances could be explained away, brushed off as pre-delivery jitters, spousal disagreements, etc. Or is one person's need for a child so great that it pushes a simple parental longing to a life of criminal activity? If you like Lisa Jackson and Mary Higgings Clark, you'll love this author!

The father of her unborn wants nothing to do with a child so they break up as the single mom to be plans to raise the child as her own though she has fears and doubts.

As she goes deeper into her pregnancy, Peyton begins to wonder if someone has been inside her apartment several times as things just seem slightly off kilter. She wonders if New York City has made her gone native; paranoid that someone is stalking her. Peyton wonders if that someone could be Thomas who seems to be around a lot. When she learns that the paranoid sometimes are right, it may prove too late as trimester pregnant females are the target of a serial killer. This frightening tale will leave readers saying no way throughout the reading, but at the end realize with some of the headline atrocities in the news yes way. The story line grips the audience switching between the killer and several pregnant women (the above paragraphs highlights one key potential victim) so that the audience sees various perspectives. Wendy Corsi Staub writes a frightening suspense thriller that grabs the attention of the audience with the comparison of a matricidal serial killer vs. pregnant victims going through the months of what should be joyful occasions.
