Shanda’s Teaser:

“When she finally reached Paris, Marie Jacobson did not discuss with her father her joy that Rolf Schulmann was alive. Miss Allred’s correspondence had rekindled the spark of hope that, even in the long absence of news from Hans, had always burned ever so subtly deep inside a heart that was trying to mend. It had confirmed her most sincere innermost hope that, Rolf would still be found alive.”
Tribunal by Sandra Grey, page 101 (still reading
it- I got distracted by life for a few days)


Sheila’s Teaser:

Shanda’s Teaser:

He twisted a strand of her hair around one long finger. “But be advised, my beautiful Nitalya – if he does not do all I require, then I will immediately come for you. And if you ever return to the Russian zone, you will never again leave my custody.”

Sheila’s Teaser:
“Why are they doing this?” Henry asked, not fully understanding what he was seeing with his own eyes.

“They arrested more people last night. Japanese, all over the city…People are getting rid of anything that might connect them to the war with Japan. Letters from Nippon. Clothing. It must all go. Too dangerous to keep. Even old photos. people are burning photos of their parents, of their families.”
