Teaser Tuesdays: The Lost Chalice

TeaserTuesdayslogo

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

~ 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!
 
Here's mine this week:

However, at some point in the late 1960's, the national Carabinieri paramilitary police decided to get even more serious about art crime. On May 3, 1969, they formed an art and cultural heritage unit, and they were out to show results. The timing of Medici's debut as an international dealer couldn't have been worse.

  8. Sound pretty interesting!

    I just started up my own book review blog. So far I'm only reviewing books for Thomas Nelson's book review blogger program. Any tips for me as I start out?
