Teaser Tuesdays


MizB of Should Be Reading hosts Teaser Tuesdays. Anyone can play along. Just do the following:

*Grab your current read.
*Open to a random page.
*Share two "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page.
*BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! You don't want to spoil the book for others.
*Share the title and author too, so other TT particpants can add it to their TBR lists if they like your teaser!

Here's mine from Shroud of Darkness by E. C. R. Lorac (p. 25):

An unknown victim attacked by an unknown assailant spells the detective's Waterloo....This victim was not only nameless: he had been struck down in London's famous fog: that evening of solid black-out when nobody noticed anybody.

    I haven't heard of this book. Thanks for sharing a teaser.

    My Teaser is a little different.

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
