"I've been feeling a bit confused ever since I met Hobbes."
"You know him then?" Doctor Finlay's voice registered surprise. "He's obviously a great bloke."
"Obviously. What about my flat?"
"I'm afraid you don't have one anymore."
"What happened?"
"It caught fire. You must know better than I how it might have started."
Maybe the doc was right but I didn't wish to think about it. Not then.
Great teaser!
ReplyDeleteOh, btw, you're homeless ... heehee
ReplyDeleteYour page 56 makes the book sound a bit like Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
ReplyDeleteOh my! This sounds like a fun read.
ReplyDeleteI like the sound of this one...will have to look for it.
ReplyDeleteoh my ever-growing TBR :)
ReplyDeleteWow, eye-catching cover art and great #56! Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteHaha, imagine being told like that your flat just caught fire! I probably wouldn't want to think about it either! Thanks for sharing and hosting, I hope you have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteI got a kick out of Friday 56 this week. It is my first time participating in this meme and page 56 in my book is blank! Just my luck :p
ReplyDeleteInteresting because the quote I took was from a part where a house is burning down! I'm a new GFC follower, thanks for hosting this cool meme!
ReplyDeleteThat's an interesting looking cover. Hope you enjoy this one.
ReplyDeleteThank you Freda and everyone. The cover was designed by Cathy Helms of Avalon Graphics and the house in the picture is real - built around 1650, and is in the English Cotswolds.
