Escape Clause 90%


Gets more and more exciting.  Virgil is on to Peck. Interesting plot.  We, the readers, know before Virgil does the ins-and-outs of the crime.  Then we follow along with Virgil as he figures it out.  

Peck continues to commit murders to cover up the theft of the Tigers and for profit.  Both of his accomplices dead and dismembered.  Chinese customer killed as well—this time by his son along with Peck. 

Other interesting plot devices:  Peck talking to himself.  Am I a serial killer?  A spree killer?  Neither.  He decides neither because killing is a pain in the neck that he wishes he could avoid.

Peck goes out to firebomb Virgil's house.  He screws up his courage—then firebombs the wrong house.

Peck hides both bodies in great spots, and both are quickly found.


I'll finish 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.
