My Teaser for this week is from
Sister Dear
by Laura McNeill
Genre: Mystery / Suspense
My teaser from page 91 in the paperback.
If time travel existed, she would go back. In half a second, she’d climb in the contraption, however rickety, plug in the year, the month, the day. Allie would send the machine back to the precise place and moment everything changed. She’d memorize the time, the smell of the air, the sound of her dog, Molly, panting in the backseat.

Read on if you want to know more.

Synopsis
All Allie Marshall wants is a fresh start. But when dark secrets refuse to stay buried, will her chance at a new life be shattered forever?
Convicted of a crime she didn’t commit, Allie watched a decade of her life vanish – time that can never be recovered. Now, out on parole, Allie is determined to clear her name, rebuild her life, and reconnect with the daughter she barely knows.
But Allie’s return home shatters the quaint, coastal community of Brunswick, Georgia. Even her own daughter Caroline, now a teenager, bristles at Allie’s claims of innocence. Refusing defeat, a stronger, smarter Allie launches a battle for the truth, digging deeply into the past even if it threatens her parole status, personal safety, and the already-fragile bond with family.
As her commitment to finding the truth intensifies, what Allie ultimately uncovers is far worse than she imagined. Her own sister has been hiding a dark secret—one that holds the key to Allie’s freedom.

There were so many great excerpts to choose from. I have such fun sharing them.
Sounds like a fascinating story. I’m curious about the sister’s secret and wondering if Allie is able to prove her innocence. I’d keep reading to find out!
My Tuesday post features HANGTOWN CREEK – A Tale of the California Gold Rush.

It was! I love when a book won’t let me go.
Sounds good, wonder what event she would go back to.
It’s something else. I liked how easily it flows from past to present and character to character.
Suddenly I smell dog breath.
LOL
