Very sad when you can't feel safe in your own home. Sounds like a scary situation, but an interesting book. Excellent teaser.
Good Teaser! The author is new to me - will have to see what the library has.
HERE is my teaser for the first day of June!
Intriguing tease. I want to know what happened.
Here's mine
Very intriguing teaser! Nice choice. Mine is at The Crowded Leaf.

This one might give me the willies!
Here's mine:

I'd hate to be in a situation where I didn't feel my home was safe . . . nice teaser. Kaye—the road goes ever ever on
