First Line Friday: 13 December

This week I’m joining First Line Friday. First Line Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Carrie @ Reading is My Superpower! So grab the book nearest you, your current read, or the book on top of your TBR stack and share the first line.

My pick this week is…

Danger on the Atlantic by Erica Ruth Neubauer

And the first line is…

The metallic groaning of the giant ocean liner pulling away from the dock at Southampton was nearly drowned out by the frenetic calls from both ship and shore.

What is the first line of the book you’re reading this week?
