Teaser Tuesday

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!

Looks intriguing! I can't imagine what's going on or what will happen next.

Excellent teaser this week! I am re-reading Watership Down by Richard Adams this week. You can find my teaser here.

Haven't read this one yet, but it certainly made it onto quite a few "Best Of the Year" lists last year. Interesting teaser!
Here's mine.
