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.
