First Lines Fridays | 8/2/24

First Lines Fridays is a weekly feature for book lovers hosted by Wandering Words. What if instead of judging a book by its cover, its author or its prestige, we judged it by its opening lines?

  • Pick a book off your shelf (it could be your current read or on your TBR) and open to the first page
  • Copy the first few lines, but donโ€™t give anything else about the book away just yet โ€“ you need to hook the reader first
  • Finallyโ€ฆ reveal the book!

“It was always a gamble, dropping off a body at Birdsall & Son, Undertakers, but this morning, the Bride of FOrtune favored Hart Ralston.”

Can you guess what book it is?

Did you guess it? Have you read this one?
