"Christine Lakin's reading is terrific. Her narration is wonderfully deadpan...and her characterization is pure ear candy. Lakin grants each character complexity and humanity..." — BookPage (Starred Review)
"[Narrator Christine] Lakin excels in her performance of the characters’ dialogue, seamlessly switching between voices and making each character sound unique. Lakin’s skillful narration perfectly captures the essence of this chaotic family novel.” — Kirkus
Rippling with humor, warmth, and style, Lost Lambs is a new vision of the charms and pitfalls of family dysfunction.
The Flynn family is coming undone. Catherine and Bud's open marriage has reached its breaking point as their daughters spiral in their own chaotic orbits: Abigail, the eldest, is dating a man in his twenties nicknamed War Crime Wes; Louise, the middle child, maintains a secret correspondence with an online terrorist; the brilliant youngest, Harper, is being sent to wilderness reform camp due to her insistence that someone—or something—is monitoring the town’s citizens.
Casting a shadow across their lives, and their small coastal town, is Paul Alabaster, a billionaire shipping magnate. Rumors of corruption circulate, but no one dares dig too deep. No one except Harper, whose obsession with a mysterious shipping container sends the family hurtling into a criminal conspiracy—one that may just bring them closer together.
Irreverent and addictive, pinging between the voices of the Flynn family and those of the panorama of characters around them, Madeline Cash’s Lost Lambs is a debut novel of quick-witted observation and surprising tenderness. With it, Cash has crafted a family saga for the twenty-first century, all held together with crazy glue.
“I can’t remember the last time a novel made me laugh so hard or feel so much tenderness for its characters.” —Leslie Jamison, author of Splinters
“Madeline Cash is a voice like no other.” —Lena Dunham
“I’ve read entire books that contain less wit and inventiveness than a single one of Cash’s sentences.” —Eric Puchner, New York Times-bestselling author of Dream State
“With a big surge of energy, Lost Lambs splits the nucleus of the American family.” —Tony Tulathimutte, author of Rejection
A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux

I loved the sisters. They're messy, they're flawed, they're fascinating.
But here's what surprised me most: good wins. Love wins. This chaotic, broken family stumbles into something genuinely dangerous, and instead of falling apart, they find their way back to each other. It's absurd and tender and funny and dark, sometimes all on the same page.
If you want something that reads like a family drama crossed with a conspiracy thriller, seasoned with razor-sharp satire, this is it. Great performance by the narrator!
Very enjoyable - a wild ride!
