Teaser Tuesday: A Mystery


It's Tuesday and that means it's time for a teaser!  You know the rules, right?  Grab your current read, let the book fall open to a random page and pick two spoiler-free sentences to share.   

This week my teasers are from THE LAST CHILD by John Hart.  As it happens, this book is being released today!  Here are my teasers:

The road came to a crumbled gate, then turned right and disappeared around an elbow of brambles and heavy growth.  The gun came out of the holster and Johnny tilted it awkwardly. ~ page 231

Boy you know how to lure us in with those Teasers. I like the writing, the plot development, and even the cover. I've put it on my list - I'm always looking for a good mystery/thriller. Thanks!
