Tuesday Teasers!

Happy Tuesday! It’s time for another Tuesday Teaser! You know the rules – open your current book to a random page and select 2 teaser sentences that will make us rush to the library or the bookstore and check it out. No spoilers, please.

This week, my teaser comes from The Brutal Telling by Louise Penny. It’s billed as a “Chief Inspector Gamache Novel”, and while I haven’t read any of the earlier books, I just might have to check them out – it’s been very good so far. The story is set in the remote village of Three Pines in Quebec, Canada, so I am getting to learn all about the Canadian police system.

This is an odd choice of teaser for a murder mystery, but with fall upon us, it sounded so clear and perfect for the season:

“This was the last day of summer vacation, and while it had been decades since he’d gone to school, he still felt the tug. The mix of sadness at the end of summer, and excitement to see his chums again.”

Perfect fall teaser, I think. What’s teasing you this week?
