My book beginnings is taken from ALL IS NOT FORGOTTEN by Wendy Walker:

 
"He followed her into the woods behind the house.  The ground there was littered with winter debris, dead leaves and twigs that had fallen over the last six months and decayed beneath a blanket of snow.  She may have heard him approach.  She may have turned and seen him wearing the black wood mask whose fibers were found beneath her nails."

    This book discusses a delicate topic.

    I can't figure out who the narrator is. Has anyone read it?

    Thanks for stopping.

    I'll be reading All Is Not Forgotten soon...I am curious about that beginning, too.

    Here's mine: “THE BEAUTY OF THE END”

      Thanks, pilch92.

      It was good, but different from my normal reading choices.

      Thanks for stopping, pilch92.

    This sounds like a book that would have double checking locks! It sounds interesting. I'll have to look for this one!

      It is a bit intense.

      Double checking doors would be a good idea. :)

      Thanks for stopping, Katherine.
