Teaser Tuesdays – 31 Bond Street

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!

Here is mine:

This is a respectable home, not a downtown gin mill, she sputtered.  A man’s been murdered in this house and the Coroner is tanking up on rum? “

~Page 11, 31 Bond Street by Ellen Horan

  5. Lynn says:

    Perhaps it was a particularly brutal murder? I expect there are times when even the most hardened coroner is shocked by the condition of a corpse. Or, maybe, he is corrupt and uncaring? Either way, sounds interesting :)
