Don't Let Go finished--use this for Shadowed!


Solid mystery/thriller. I found it a little cloying at times. Nap Dumas loves a lot of people and doesn't mind telling the reader.

The Nike missile plant has been converted to a Block Operations unit. Helicopter comes in the same night Leo is breaking up with Diane. Leo gets his buddies (boys and girls) to play a nasty trick on her in retribution. All goes to hell. Retribution comes back on Leo and the others.

This is my second Coben novel. I've liked them both.

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

Live and Let Die

 The Fleming book, flawed by 50's racism, moves along in plot and character.  Fleming is an excellent writer--great descriptive powers and pacing. The movie has no redeeming qualities.  All that's left from the book is the racism, and in the book you can feel Fleming's doubts about his racist scenes slipping in.  In the movie (made years later), the racism is incredible.  1972.  Those who say no progress has been made should watch this.  Impossible to imagine this film being made today.
