English Summary/英文概要: Who is the Lullaby Girl? Found washed up on the banks of a remote loch, a mysterious girl is taken into the care of a psychiatric home in the Highlands of Scotland. Mute and covered in bruises, she has no memory of who she is or how she got there. The only clue to her identity is the Danish lullaby she sings...Inside the care home, she should be safe. But, harassed by the media and treated as a nuisance by under-pressure staff, she finds the home is far from a haven. And as her memories slowly surface, the Lullaby Girl does her best to submerge them again. Some things are too terrible to remember...but unless she confronts her fear, how can she find out who she really is? Taut, tense and mesmerising, Lullaby Girl is a shining debut from an exciting and very talented new author.

Lullaby Girl is one of the few books of late where you really find yourself truly invested in the character - you absolutely need to understand what’s happened to her. Fantastic and completely gripping book. --Wonderland Avenue

About the Author/作者介绍: ALY SIDGWICK spent many years in Oslo as a tattoo artist and comic strip-artist. She studied illustration in Edinburgh, before rediscovering her passion for writing. While living in Malmö in Sweden, Aly was inspired by the Scandi setting to start writing her first novel. She became obsessed with the story and didn’t tell anyone that she was working on it for six months, until her friend read a draft and encouraged her to pursue it. Her spare time is devoted to reading, painting, travelling and drinking lots of black coffee. Lullaby Girl is her debut novel.
