I'm participating in two Friday book memes, Book Beginnings On Fridays, hosted by Rose City Reader, and The Friday 56, hosted by Freda's Voice.
A Cold Trail by Robert Dugoni is the newest book in the Tracy Crosswhite mystery series. My review will be up in a week or two.
Book Beginnings
Every Friday, share the first sentence (or so) of the book you are reading, along with your initial thoughts about the sentence, impressions of the book, or anything else the opener inspires. Please remember to include the title of the book and the author’s name.
Friday 56 Rules:
*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to Page 56 or 56% on your ereader. If you have to improvise, that is okay.
*Find a snippet, short and sweet.
*Post it, and add the url to your post at the Link here.here

Heather Johansen wiped her tears and the driving rain that blurred her vision and ran down her face. She walked the edge of the county road, with no street lamps or moonlight to guide her; the ink-black darkness rising from the asphalt beneath her feet to the heavy storm clouds gathered above the thick tree canopy in the North Cascades.

"Not for what he told us. But we didn't want him going and spreading unconfirmed rumors about Heather all over town."
"And you thought he was going to do that, spread rumors?"
"He told us he was going to do that."
Heather could be walking down one of our roads right now. We've been having a massive rain storm. I'd love for you and your readers to check out mine! https://lisaksbookthoughts.blogspot.com/2020/02/its-cozy-food-friday-that-means-its.html
ReplyDeleteToday was rainy here but luckily, no storm.
DeleteAw, man, we just got snow today (it's still snowing, as far as I know), and I'm all sorts of feeling this cover right now. xD The opening sounds dark and ominous, and I'm digging it. Hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Friday post.
Thanks! It is an ominous opening, isn"t it?
DeleteWhy was he going to spread the rumors though? I'm intrigued. Happy weekend! Thank you for the wishes. Mom's recovering nicely!
ReplyDeleteOh, good. I'm glad your mother is recovering nicely! 😊 Happy weekend!
DeleteI hate to have rain driving into my face the way described in the first quote. My quotes from Ordinary Hazards
ReplyDeleteYrah, that's unpleasant when it happens.
DeleteI've heard a lot of great things about Dugoni. I may have to try his work.

I've only read his Tracy Crosswhite books but they are good.
DeleteLooks good. That beginning sets a nice tone. Love the cover too!
ReplyDeleteThe beginning really did and that cover helps.
DeleteThis sounds like a good one.
ReplyDeleteIt was a good one.
DeleteThis is a new-to-me series that I think I'd like. I'm going to take a look at the first book.
ReplyDeleteI think you'd like these books. They are well written and not too violent on page.
