Editorial Reviews
From AudioFile
Here is a new twist on the classic hard-boiled detective story. James Daniels delightfully captures private eye Elvis Cole, the rugged but kindhearted sleuth who goes beyond the call of duty for his newest client. The story heats up when Cole locates a zany movie director's ex-wife who is tied up with the Mob. He tries to help her escape their clutches, but finds he has more to deal with when the director decides to take matters into his own hands. From small-town goons to big-city thugs, Daniels identifies with each and easily delivers the goods.

From Kirkus Reviews
Lullaby Town is Chelam, Connecticut, where L.A. shamus Elvis Cole (The Monkey's Raincoat, 1987--not reviewed) goes in search of Karen Shipley, divorced ten years earlier by boyish filmmaker Peter Alan Nelsen, who's since developed deep pockets (courtesy of a string of action hits beginning with Chainsaw) and a conscience of sorts. Just when it looks like Elvis has found Karen and her son, Toby, all too easily, Karen turns out to be laundering money for the Mafia, and the story takes off like a two-stage rocket. It'll take all of Elvis's wise-guy savvy to pry Karen loose from those other wise-guys without condemning her to the witness-protection program or the East River. Elvis is as sharp as a West Coast Spenser, but without Spenser's nasty/noble attitudinizing--and this story is pure pleasure from the very first page. -- Copyright ©1992, Kirkus Associates, LP.
