Teaser Tuesdays: Kept in the Dark by Penny Hancock

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just open your current read to a random page and share a few sentences. Be careful not to include spoilers!

Happy Tuesday, kids. I’m happy to share today a teaser from a new-to-the-U.S. thriller (out in the UK last January) called Kept in the Dark. Nice little play on words, there: “kept in the dark” usually means not telling somebody something, but of course there’s a more literal meaning here. I am finding this deliciously creepy! Enjoy.

…there’s a sweetness in saving some things for later. To savour the anticipation. Now Jez is here, in the music room, I have all the time in the world again.

Note the British “ou” spelling of savor – no, spellcheck, I meant it that way. :)

This quotation comes from an uncorrected advance proof and is subject to change.
