Teaser Tuesday: The Heretic's Daughter


Each week, TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:

  • Grab your current read
  • Let the book fall open to a random page
  • Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
  • Include the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given.

    Please avoid spoilers!

I'm taking my teasers from THE HERETIC'S DAUGHTER by Kathleen Kent:

I started to shake my head no, but a terrible idea was forming in the back of my mind and my eyes must have widened, so that Mother nodded her head grimly and said, "When they cannot make me confess they will come to my family and it will not matter that you are a child. There are children in Salem Town jail even now." ~ page 177

    That teaser confirms the fact that I must read this book. I checked it out once from the library but ran out of time so I returned it. Once I get my pile to a reasonable amount I'm going to get it again!

    Wow, that just gives me the chills. The idea of anyone going after my kids give me great sympathy for someone in that situation.

    Here's my post.
