Teaser Tuesday - Shadow of Night, by Deborah Harkness

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just:
* 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 and author, too, so that other Teaser Tuesday participants can add the book to their To Be Read (TBR) Lists if they like your teasers!

----------

Matthew and Diana seem to have settled down in London.  Matthew keeps busy with his spy duties, and Diana has finally found someone to teach her to control her magic.  Everything appears to be going well, until the unthinkable happens, and the Queen of England summons them both to court.

The Tease:
 "Henry tells me you are expected at court this afternoon.  You have nothing to wear."  With an imperious finger, Mary directed still more of her crew in the direction of our bedchamber.
"I was going to wear the gown I was married in," I protested.
"But it is French!" Mary said, aghast. "You cannot wear that!"
 -Shadow of Night, by Deborah Harkness

  3. Oh, my, that just won't do! I wonder what she'll find to wear on such short notice? It's not like she can run down to Macy's and get something off the rack.
    My teaser is from CONFESSIONS OF A CORPORATE SLUT.
