This week my teaser lines come from The Seance by John Harwood:...I was sitting up in bed reading when my grandmother came into the room and sat down in the chair beside me, looking exactly as she had when I was a little girl: the same elaborate black silk dress and tightly pinned white hair, the same familiar scent of lavender and violet water. The chair creaked as she settled herself in it, smiled at me and took up her work, just as if she had only been gone five minutes, rather than resting in Kensal Green Cemetery for the past fifteen years. (p.104)

Oh, good teaser. I like the cover too, rather old fashioned.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I hadn't heard about this one until now. It's right up my alley. I didn't think anyone wrote ghost (as opposed to horror stories) anymore. This is the second one I've heard about in as many days. My lucky day!
