The day before my father's arrest, I read an article about a local mother who cured her daughter of the influenza by burying the child in raw onions for three days.

  2. Everyone who's read the book so far has enjoyed the first paragraphs, so I'm keeping them as is for now. Thanks again for your suggestion to make this the opening line!
