I have a passion. First sentences. I love first sentences. Some are amazing (the hook), some average (the line) and some, for me, are just eh! (stinkers). I've collected them for years. These are the ones I've read.

A garden of vipers
Next up was Jack Kerley's A GARDEN OF VIPERS (Dutton, c2006, ISBN 0-525-94952-6).
It begins:
Are you sure he ran this way?
Set in Mobile, Alabama, Carson Ryder and Harry Nautilus are back in the third book in this series.
Also in this book is DeeDee Danbury and Clair Peltier from previous books and the Kincannon family, new to this story. The Kincannon's are scions of Mobile - with tons of money and a whack-job on the loose. People are dying right and left and Carson and Harry are stuck right in the middle of it all.
This was a good installment in the series even though I still liked THE HUNDREDTH MAN best. That being said, I look foward to the next book, THE BROKEN SOULS.
