Teaser Tuesday - November 24, 2009

p>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!





On a privateering raid, any man who tried to conceal a part of the general booty was always put to death. Hunter himself had shot more than one theiving seaman through the heart and kicked the corpse overboard without a second thought. (pg 33 of Pirate Latitiudes by Michael Crichton)
