Roman Hat Mystery 95%

I didn't do badly at all with my prediction.  The murderer is an actor, the guy in love with the industrialist's daughter (Frances). He killed Monty Fields with gasoline he'd put in his flask, but he was ready with a hypodermic needle, too. Queen the Elder traps him with a fake letter from Monty Field's lawyer's man-servant.

Yet to be determined (and I'm almost done) is the motive for the murder.  It is to stop the blackmailing, of course, but blackmailing over what?  Odd that there are no hints.  Actor Barry is hoping to marry into a rich family.  Is he already married?  Is he an ex-con?  Is he a woman?  First two, maybe. Last one --- I don't think so!

I'll find out tomorrow.

Netflix Lincoln Lawyer

 Just a long yawner.  Acting was fine; there just wasn't nearly enough plot to carry 10 episodes.  Tech guy accused of killing wife.  LL takes on the case after the tech lawyer's first lawyer is murdered.  Mickey Haller gets the guy off . . . trick is the guy is guilty.  He used a drone to dispose of bloody clothes.  Subplot Maggy McFierce trying to get a conviction of a human trafficker.  She loses but then wins.  The divorced couple almost gets back together, but they are on opposite sides of the adversarial process and work comes first.  Won't be in a hurry to watch Season 2

Brotherhood

 Showtime -- Providence, two brothers, one aspiring politician the other a crook.  Totally different, but not so much.  Cop (close friend as child) is investigating crooked brother.  Pretty good series.
