Recommended by Michael Connelly in an interview and then mentioned in Resurrection Walk. Good start--about 10% done. Two gamers in Boston, Sam at Harvard and Sadie at MIT. Past history when Sadie's sister was in Children's Hospital in LA with leukemia and Sam was in same hospital with broken bones in foot after car accident. Sam non-communicative, but talks to Sadie. She then "uses" him as her community service for her Bat Mitzvah requirement, though she really does see him as a friend.
Solid opening 30 minutes (we're treating this like a mini-series). O's involvement with left-wing causes . . . rift with Einstein (O thinks of him as over-the-hill and Einstein knows it.) First splitting of atom. Lawrence Lab in Berkeley--Lawrence practical applied physics . . . not O's strength. Main actor is from Peaky Blinders.
