I'm reviving my participation in the First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros linky hosted by Bibliophile by the Sea. I used to take part in this particular linky earlier on in the year, but then things got busy and my participation fizzled; but I'm back at it! The premise behind Tuesday Intros is to share the first paragraph or so of the book you're reading. I love the premise behind this linky as it's great for book recs, but you also get a feel for an author's writing style.
Actually, it was mere chance that they found the body at all. And finding it so quickly should have aided the police investigation.
FIRST LINES
They found the corpse on the eighth of July just after three o'clock in the afternoon. It was fairly well intact and couldn't have been lying in the water very long. Actually, it was mere chance that they found the body at all. And finding it so quickly should have aided the police investigation.

This looks like it could be a good, gritty mystery.
ReplyDeleteSeems to be shaping up that way!
DeleteWhile the cover draws me to this book and I do like crime and mystery, the intro doesn't really grab me, but I think I'd like it if I continued on.
