Welcome to my “First Lines Fridays”.
This is a weekly meme, that I first saw on Jill’s Book Blog and which is originally hosted by Wondering Words.
Rules:
- Choose a book from your shelves/current read
- Open the book to the first page
- Copy the first line on the page, making sure you don’t give away the book title
- Reveal the book.
FIRST LINES:
“THERE ARE PLACES I’LL REMEMBER ALL MY LIFE – RED SQUARE with a hot wind howling across it, my mother’s bedroom on the wrong side of 8-Mile, the endless gardens of a fancy foster home, a man waiting to kill me in a group of ruins known as the Theatre of Death.”
Do you recognise which book these lines come from?
This weeks book is…
Synopsis/Blurb (Goodreads):
“A young woman murdered in a run-down Manhattan hotel.
A father publicly beheaded in the blistering sun of Saudi Arabia.
A man’s eyes stolen from his living body as he leaves a secret Syrian research laboratory.
Smouldering human remains on a mountainside in the Hindu Kush.
A plot to commit an appalling crime against humanity.
One thread that binds them all.
One man to take the journey.
Pilgrim.”
