My book beginnings is taken from THE BLACKBIRD SEASON by Kate Moretti:
"The rain came in sheets, like a wall, forming wide rivulets down the windshield. The wipers swished and couldn't keep up. They were old, needed to be replaced, and left streaks across the glass. But this was Alecia's car, and she hadn't told him."
