Hitting and running again, folks. Beside the intermittent internet connection /kicks ISP to perdition/ and the hectic work sked, my blogging sked's a capital M-E-S-S and won't normalize until after next week. /sob/ I'm so sorry. I'll make it up to everyone, I promise.

To make this quick, the book whence today's teaser is taken is a Grand Slam mystery... it won the Edgar, the Macavity, the Agatha and the Anthony Awards. And reading it, I can certainly see why. I give you Bootlegger's Daughter by Margaret Maron.

"So they fuss over me and they sweet-talk and part of it is that they're just so, so sorry for me and the other part's that they're dying to know what it's like to have a murdered mother and not know who did it."
"What
is it like?" I asked.
-p. 35, Bootlegger's Daughter by Margaret Maron

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!
