This week's teaser is from Buried in a Book by Lucy Arlington, the first in her "A Novel Idea" mystery series.
I don't remember calling the police.
I vaguely recall the sound of sirens, but they seemed to remain at a distance, never coming close enough to break through the fog enveloping my senses.
(Chapter 12)
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Series: A Novel Idea #1
After receiving her first pink slip at the age of forty-five, former newspaper journalist Lila Wilkins is desperate for work, even if it means taking a pay cut. After combing through the classifieds, Lila accepts an internship at A Novel Idea, a thriving literary agency in the Utopian town of Inspiration Valley, North Carolina.
Lila can't imagine anything better than being paid to read, but with a crew of quirky co-workers and a sky-high stack of query letters, she doesn't exactly have time to discover the next great bestseller—especially when a penniless aspiring author drops dead in the agency's waiting room.
No one else seems too concerned about the man’s demise, but when Lila uncovers a series of threatening letters, she's determined to uncover what—or who—killed the man’s dreams of literary stardom. . . .

Good weather for book-reading! This looks like an interesting one.
Beth: Yes, has certainly been the weather for indoor activities like reading. I split last weekend fairly evenly between that and watching DVDs.
