Book Beginnings & Friday 56 - #4

Book Beginnings on Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Rose City Reader. Every Friday we share the first sentence (or so) of the book we’re currently reading, along with your initial thoughts about the sentence, impressions of the book, or anything else the opener inspires.

My Book Beginning:  

Wonderment in Death by J.D. Robb (In Death, #41.5)

The dead were his business.

Over the years, he’d built a tidy fortune- though it was never enough, never quite enough- exploiting the dead and those who loved them.

My Thoughts:  Clearly we are “hearing” the thoughts of an unscrupulous person, perhaps even a criminal.   

What do you think?  Don't forget to leave your book beginning below and to link-up at Rose City Reader.

My 56 (Also from Wonderment in Death): 

     They interviewed three psychics – waking up one who claimed to commune with spirits between the hours of midnight and five a.m.

“Nothing there.” Eve got back in the car, aimed it toward Cop Central.

“The second one we talked to? Mikhal Lombrowski? He was the real deal.  The others, maybe they had something, but they were mostly looking to score.  He was genuine.”
