This week my teaser lines come from As Chimney Sweepers Come to Dust, the 7th book in Alan Bradley's Flavia de Luce Mystery series. I read this one earlier this year, but haven't reviewed it yet. This snippet comes from Chapter Five (page 77):
Who was she? How had she died? How long had she been hidden in the chimney?Well, those are all very good questions, aren't they? Flavia does lead an interesting life -- especially for a twelve-year-old.
And -- most tantalizing -- how and why had she come to be wrapped in a Union Jack?

Looks like a fun read. Mine is from a non-fiction book about a young female chess prodigy from Uganda. http://eyesandearsblog.blogspot.com/2015/06/teaser-tuesday.html
