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 ruin the book for others.

*Share the title and author too, so other TT participants can add it to their TBR lists if they like your teaser.

Here's mine from The Lady in the Loch by Elizabeth Ann Scarborough (p. 153):

"Thon lassie is no common fortune-teller, Deacon," Hogg said to Primrose. "She's a verra fine singer, and a seventh dochter of a seventh deochter, as was her mither before her."

"Is she noo?" Mac Rae asked. "I'd like a word with her.  Could be she could use the Sight tae gie me a clue as tae the identity o' yer lady in yon loch."

(a bit heavy-going through that Scottish accent at times....)
