The May Queen Murders - First chapter, first paragraph & teasers


First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros is a weekly meme hosted by Bibliophile by the Sea to share the first paragraph of a book you're currently reading or about to read. 



Chapter 1 – “Yet another LOST DOG sign marked the animal clinic’s window. This one stung. Mrs. Knightley had brought her beagle Jones in for a heartworm test only last week. I’d given him one of Aunt Rue’s dog biscuits, and Jones’s tail had wagged with glee.  Now he was one more missing face. The curled papers blanketing the glass rustled against the April wind. Some had been there since January, when the dogs began disappearing. Papa wouldn’t take them down.”

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Books and a Beat  to participate open the book you are currently reading to a random page and share two sentences - but make sure they aren't spoilers.

Here are mine:

From page 105:

 “A murder of crows rushed into the sky and perched upon the houses, the fences, wherever they could find a place to land.”
“The edges of his sharp beak opened to reveal a pointed tongue before he gave a loud ‘Caw, caw, caw!”
 
Based on the first paragraph and the two teasers, is this a book you would continue reading?  Why or why not?

Don't forget to share your link so I can check out yours.
