Here's my teaser from 5 Bullets by Lee Thayer (pp. 101-2). Again, the passage was so book-appropriate that I just had to go over the two sentences:
We'll just go off somewhere and park in a pretty place for the afternoon. Francie has some highbrow reading she wants to do and I have a mystery story I'm dying to finish. Don't you like Nero Wolfe? Or do you prefer Hercule Poirot, Miss Hartley? I'm fond of them both, really. And then there's Perry Mason. He's a little unscrupulous, but always in a good cause. I find him more sympathetic than Philo Vance though...
Nice little line-up of detectives Mrs. Follette's got there. I'd go sit in a pretty place and read any of those with her.
Not a bad line up if I do say so,

Great teaser for sure, of course she is dying to finish :-)
ReplyDeleteWill you be taking Emma?
ReplyDelete@CMash: Oh, you're a funny one, you are. NO. Emma is in the garage. Boxed up. Where she belongs.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser, and wise to add it all.
