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!
This week my Teaser is from Sorrow Bound by David Mark in the third of his series about DS Aector Mcavoy which is due to be published on 3 April 2014.
Blurb
Philippa Longman will do anything for her family.
Roisin McAvoy will do anything for her friends.
DS Aector McAvoy will do anything for his wife.
Yet each has an unknown enemy – one that will do anything to destroy them.
Sorrow Bound is a powerful police procedural thriller about how those with the biggest hearts make the easiest targets; and how the corrosive venom of evil can dissolve the bonds between good people, until all they are bound by is grief. NetGalley
My Teaser
Sabine says nothing for a moment, then reaches down and pulls a notepad from her satchel. She writes something on the open page, but whether it is some clinical insight or a reminder to pick up toilet rolls on the way home, McAvoy cannot tell.
‘You’ve picked a job that is all about duty, haven’t you? Did you always want to be a policeman?’
I love how the reader is kept in suspense until the last line. Nice teaser. Here’s mine

It is proving to be a good read, I think the fact that the author was a crime reporter does add something to the reading experience.

Thanks for adding your link 🙂 It is a good read and although it references the early books in the series I’m finding it quite satisfying as a standalone 🙂
