Teaser Tuesday (25)

 Tuesday is a weekly meme anyone can take part in, hosted my MizB at Should Be Reading.  To participate all you have to do is get the book you are currently reading, open to a random page, and post a two sentence teaser that doesn’t contain spoilers.  Make sure you don’t forget to let us know the title and author of the book so people can add it to their To Be Read list if they liked the teasing!

Here’s my teaser:

 I’m told that the day I was born, Uncle Paolo held me against his white lab coat and whispered, “She is perfect.”  Sixteen years later, they’re still repeating the word.
