Teaser Tuesday


Time for the Tuesday Teaser. Again the reminder of what this is all about. We are asked to:



  • Grab your current read.

  • Let the book fall open to a random page.

  • Share two teaser sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.

  • Share the title of the book that the “teaser” comes from, so people can find the book if they like the teaser.

  • And again remember – avoid spoilers.


While waiting for particular book to arrive (Larsson), I'm currently reading two:

STILL LIFE by Louise Penny --

As the passenger door of the unmarked car was opened for him, Gamache caught the unmistakable fragrance of Tim Horton's coffee in cardboard cups and another aroma, Brioche. The young agent had done her homework. Only while on a murder case did he drink fast-food coffee. It was so associated in his mind with the teamwork, the long hours, the standing in cold, damp fields, that his heart raced every time he smelt industrial coffee and wet cardboard.


and

SPY IN CHANCERY by P.C. Doherty



Corbett shouldered his way through the busy, gaudy-smelling throng. He had been in Paris seven days and was trying to forget his own problems by visiting the self-proclaimed capital of Europe. Paris stretched from the Grands Boulevards on the right bank of the Seine to the Luxembourg Gardens on the left, the city had grown round the castles and manor houses of the King and was spreading out to include the great homes of the merchant princes as well as the wood and daub houses of the
artisans.

Warmer today but windy -- I hate wind. Steve has a board meeting tonight so dinner will be quick. Will watch Hard Rock: Party at the Rehab tonight.


Much love,

PK the Bookeemonster
