Carrie begins to think that something is very wrong when her mother suddenly has a baby late in life and the new nanny begins behaving in odd ways. This description may be from another edition of this product.
In the middle of the night in New Testament, Oklahoma, a young couple is murdered and their newborn son, Jeremy Sweet, is stolen. Although Kim Delaney's uncle is investigating the crime, Kim can't help but worry the kidnapper/murderer will strike again, especially ever since her mother gave birth to a baby girl (Daphne). Kim feels extremely protective of her baby sister. So, when her mother hires a nanny (Barbara Chancellor) to help out while she's at work, Kim is naturally wary and disapproving of the woman. And Miss Chancellor's strict, unpersonable manner doesn't help improve Kim's opinion of her either.(...)I didn't really like the last few pages of the book--they were too rushed and too much happened all at once--, but "The Last Lullaby" is decent enough reading for most teens who like suspense/horror.
