This week my teaser is from The Swimming Pool by Holly LeCraw:
His only wish was to grab truth by the shoulders and look it straight in the eye, but he could not seem to get hold of it. He knew his father did not have the same wish.

Here is my teaser from Lipstick in Afghanistan by Roberta Gately (Page 1):
"Do you hear it?" The voice was almost a whisper.
Elsa held her breath, and then she heard it too, a faint rustling of footsteps over twigs and leaves. Out of the corner of her eye, she glimpsed several shadowy figures darting through the trees, and when she turned, she saw a glint of sunlight reflecting off the barrel of an assault rifle.
There was no denying it—the Taliban had found them.
Oh, Jesus! she thought. We'll never escape.
Elsa knew the Taliban's ruthless hatred; the death and destruction they wrought was undeniable.
Seized by a sickening wave of fear, she wanted to cry or throw up, but there was no time. She tried to catch Parween's eye, but her friend was looking back, intent on finding the source of the sound.
"Run!" someone shouted, and suddenly, the chase was on.
Thanks for the interesting teaser, never heard of this book before. Hope you enjoy it.
Happy Holidays
My Teaser Tuesday

Great teaser - I look forward to your thoughts on this book.
My Bebe Boy James has been sick for a couple of days, so I didn't participate this week, but I do love that teaser. Makes me wonder what kind of father he has. Thanks for sharing!
