whistle on the cover

Spotted this in the test forum. Looks somewhat interesting.

The Amazon editorial review calls the instruments left in the snatched babies cribs a “penny flute” :confused: , I wonder if this is the term used in the book? I’ve never used this term before, does anyone here use this term?

they probably just assumed your average housewife wouldn’t know what it was if they called it a whistle. shrugs

Ha Ha, Dale, I beat you to it!

What did they do, put the fipple on the other end so a hole would show in the pic?

And what kind of whistle is it?
