Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by Miz B 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 and author too, so other TT participants can add the book to their TBR lists if they like your teasers.
My teasers:
“Here she was in broad daylight, searching for a dead stranger’s little toe in the bottom of her purse. But after a minute, she found it and handed it to Brenda.”

“Mr Coleridge, in the midst of all his deficiencies, it appeared, was liked by the men, although he was the butt of the whole company…”
“The officers hastened into the room, and inquired of one another about that ‘odd fish’ at the door; when one of the mess(it is believed , the surgeon)told them that he had his eye upon him, but he would neither tell where he came from, nor anything about his family of the Cumberbatches.”
The Oxford Book of Literary Anecdotes edited by James Sutherland P 155

I must have this book. I cannot go on without knowing more about poor Mr. Coleridge and the Cumberbatches. (What a lovely name for a character. Judge Milford Cumberbatch and his wife, Ella Mae.)
