Falling Glass Finished

I admire writers who are ambitious, and this is very much an ambitious novel.  McKinty doesn't quite pull it off, but  . . .

Killian decides that to save Rachel, he has to kill the lawyer and the airline CEO. The lawyer OD's, the CEO is shot in the head.  Killian escapes.  He returns to his "Tinker" roots but is found by the man who hired him to find Rachel in the first place.  "I can't let you get away with failing to do the job."

Is our "hero" going to get killed?  Book ends with Killian trying to talk his killer out of killing him.

Along the way there are interesting musings on life, art, Tinkers, architecture, relationships, butterflies, migratory birds.  As I said, ambitious . . .

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.
