Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!
• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (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!
My teaser Tuesday is from: Death Scent by S.V. Wolf
"Our integration into this wabi world (white) has always been for the sacred purpose. But I will tell you this: A man needs not hold a knife to my throat for me to know when my life is in danger. Just because this killer stands not before our Death Dog or my daughter does not diminish the fact that he has indeed placed their lives in danger from afar."
Titan is a Death Dog (trained to detect human remains), belonging to an undisclosed sect of the Shawnee Nation, which provides special services to the highest levels of U.S. Law enforcement. The sect members all possess superior skills, most involved with the tracking and sometimes killing, of the most grievous of perpetrators. Titan though is not only a specially trained dog, he also possess supernatural abilities such as seeing and speaking to the spirits of the dead. As he matures he slowly learns of new gifts and uses them as he is pressed into service through a series of murders of young women. Titan embarks along with his handler (daughter of the sect chief) and other sect members on a suspense filled hunt for the killer; tracking down the victims with Titan's fine nose, and collecting the evidence that will lead them to a final showdown with the murderer. As Titan locates these victims he helps them to find their way across the Great Divide. Death Scent is filled with spirits, Native American culture, murder, hunt-and-chase, and characters you can connect with.
