Today’s question:

If you could sit down and interview anyone, who would it be?
And, what would you ask them?

My answer:

This is one mighty hard question this week, at least for me. I have so many that are rattling around in my head, albeit family members that have passed on, the famous and infamous that also have passed on and great authors of past and present. However, I keep coming back to one in particular and that is Jesus. Maybe it’s because I received a very profound email about him this morning.

I am sorry if this offends anyone, however, it is my belief and my response. My faith, I am Catholic, has taught me that he suffered and died for us. I would ask how disappointed is he in mankind? Why is there so much hatred among his children? And even though we are taught and believe, I think we are all a little skeptical about eternal life, I would ask, will we truly be reunited with our loved ones?

Who would you interview?

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!

Terrified. What did you do? I called 911. Why? She was afraid of Wael. He had threatened her before. The responding officers had found Rahim, covered with her blood, trying to stuff his sister’s body into the building’s incinerator.

Synopsis:
Nationally bestselling author James LePore has established a reputation as a writer whose vividly drawn characters and morally complex plots have kept readers up to all hours turning pages. His new novel promises more sleepless nights and more nonstop thrills.

Matt DeMarco is an accomplished Manhattan attorney with more than his share of emotional baggage. His marriage ended disastrously, his ex-wife has pulled their son away from him, and her remarriage to a hugely successful Arab businessman has created complications for Matt on multiple levels. However, his life shifts from troubled to imperiled when two cops – men he’s known for a long time – come into his home and arrest his son as the prime suspect in the murder of the boy’s girlfriend.

Suddenly, the enmity between Matt and his only child is no longer relevant. Matt must do everything he can to clear his son, who he fully believes is innocent. Doing so will require him to quit his job and make enemies of former friends – and it will throw him up against forces he barely knew existed and can only begin to comprehend how to battle.

If this sounds like something you would enjoy reading and reviewing, this novel is touring with Partners In Crime Tours February-Aril 2012. Email me and I can provide you with more details (CMash@Partnersincrimetours.net)
