PAGE 228, LINE 19 – 4/2/19
Rules from the Haunted Wordsmith:
If you haven’t participated in this fun little prompt before, it’s quite simple. Grab a book…any kind of book…and flip to page 228, then count to line 19. Use that line as a prompt for a post. You can take the quote directly as used in that story, or simply find inspiration in the line and come up with something else.
Simply provide the quote (along with book title and author) and have fun!
If you want to participate, simply write a post and link it back to this post so everyone can read it.

“I cannot understand it…It would be easier to understand if he had been shot…”
Murder on the Orient Express, Agatha Christie
(had to use 2 lines to make sense as the sentence ran more than one line)
********************
People stood around perplexed and looked at the body.
There was so much blood, but no sign of a wound.
“I cannot understand it…it would be easier to understand if he had been shot!”
