TUESDAY INTROS and TEASERS: THE FORGOTTEN GARDEN 9.6.15

TUESDAY INTROS and TEASERS
today featuring June's ReadaLong at #TraveltheWorldinBooks

~ We begin with the opening paragraph for First Paragraph First Chapter
Tuesday Intros at Diane's Bibliophile by the Sea ~
London, 1913
"It was dark where she was crouched but the little girl did as she'd been told.  The lady had said to wait, it wasn't safe yet, they had to be as quiet as larder mice.  It was a game,
 just like hide-and-seek."
~
Then add a Tuesday Teaser at Jenn's A Daily Rhythm . Two sentences from anywhere in the book.  No plot spoilers. ~ "A moment of suspension and she found herself holding her breath, palms flat beside her, then the boat heaved and pushed itself away from the dock. They were on their way."
~
Shall I keep reading...?
In case you're intrigued and want to read along,  here's your opportunity.
Details HERE plus the Goodreads Group HERE
