Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Should Be Reading and this is what she has to say about it:
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page
- Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
- Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
My teaser comes from Pray For Silence by Linda Castillo - A murder mystery set in an Amish town.
"It's a surreal scene and for the span of several heartbeats, I can't get my mind around it. Shock is like a battering ram, assaulting my brain." pg 10
Very scary and gruesome so far!
A blurb about the book: In the quiet town of Painters Mill an Amish family is found slaughtered on their farm. Kate Burkholder and her small police force have few clues, no motive and no suspect. Formerly Amish herself, Kate is no stranger to secrets, but she can’t get her mind around the senseless brutality of the crime.
