Teaser Tuesday #20

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!

My teaser this week is from The Eternity Cure by Julie Kagawa

Before I give you the teaser, just one thing. I will put a "(...) at the end of the first paragraph because I won't want to give spoilers.

The teaser:

A figure stood at the back wall, waiting, as I'd feared. (...)

"Hello, sister,” Jackal greeted, his gold eyes shining in the dim light. “It’s about time you showed up.”

What's your teaser this week?
