Teaser:
Mama used to say he had a wicked sense of humor, but I rarely saw signs of it. I just assumed it was something he lost along with his leg.My teaser this week comes from The Girl Is Murder by Kathryn Miller Haines. I bought this book when it was nominated for a YA Edgar and it has been languishing on my TBR mountain since Feb. 2, 2012. Here is the description from Amazon:
Iris Anderson is only 15, but she's quickly mastering the art of deception in this YA novel for fans of Veronica Mars.
It's the Fall of 1942 and Iris's world is rapidly changing. Her Pop is back from the war with a missing leg, limiting his ability to do the physically grueling part of his detective work. Iris is dying to help, especially when she discovers that one of Pop's cases involves a boy at her school. Now, instead of sitting at home watching Deanna Durbin movies, Iris is sneaking out of the house, double crossing her friends, and dancing at the Savoy till all hours of the night. There's certainly never a dull moment in the private eye business.
Oooh intriguing tease! Definitely makes you want to know more!
