Beginning first chapter - The hook

I think I have written, edited and reedited the first chapter about ten times. Somehow I cannot seem to get it right, to manage that hook and suspense. Is it only me? 

Writing

I never thought I would one day say this; writing is difficult! In my mind, I have all these ideas crashing on one another and when I sit down to put them on paper (or type them out), they are completely different from the picutre in my head.  Great respect to anyone who has taken the step and finished their story. Be proud, it's uniquely you and it's yours.
