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!)

From Page 8 of A Thousand Cuts, by Simon Lelic. It is a British debut novel that deals with the aftermath of a school shooting.

MY TEASERS:
"Banks tried to get back in after that but I'm pretty sure he didn't make it. By the time we get outside there's tapw and more police and TV cameras and everything's being organised. The teachers, they're calling register and forming lines and that sort of thing. I stand on my own, to one side."

    Good teaser! Really draws the reader in. Hope the rest of the book lives up to that little taste.
