The book I'm currently reading is 'Watchdogs: Abnormal Beginnings Book 1'.
The first sentence of the book is, "The night sky filled with flakes of snow off the hills of a brown snow boot worn by a youthful Middle-Eastern scarlet-haired female running through a forest carrying a bag full of stuff."

The pickup truck hurtles down a dirt road in rural New Zealand. In the back it’s just me, four loaded guns, and some kilo bricks of drugs. I’m going to die, I think. And not for the first time today.
