Teaser Tuesday... The Story of Beautiful Girl

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Here's mine:  The Story of Beautiful Girl, Rachel Simon

The baby swallowed, making noises of contentment, and as Martha neared the dock, something atop a post at the far end caught her eye.  She tested the planks with her feet and moved out over the water.  As she and the baby neared, she saw that it was a hat.  No, a cap, just like the one her husband used to wear.  Just like the one she'd given to Number Forty-two.

Oh, that's mysterious! I wonder what happened to her husband and who Number Forty-two might be?
