Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk

As he investigates mysterious deaths linked to the song, he teams up with a real estate agent named Helen Hoover Boyle, who is also aware of the song's power. Together, they embark on a cross-country journey to destroy all copies of the book containing the lethal lullaby. Along the way, they confront themes of power, control, and the ethical implications of wielding such a deadly force, all while grappling with their own personal demons and the seductive allure of the song's power.
