Teaser Tuesday {6}

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 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!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers! 

"She saw his gloves and flat cap clearly, but she could not move, not even to remove her foot from the pool of blood. Then came a knock at the door."

- The Mysterious Lady Law by Robert Appleton
