I THINK I know where this chunk of Triptych by Karin Slaughter is going with this seeming huge detour from the main storyline.
Hoping I’m wrong, because if I’m right, it’s way not my thing.
The remaining crew of Firefly pull of a job scoring them a fortune, and all go their separate ways. Long-married Mal and Inara spend their days travelling on the ship to find the planets with the best sunsets.
I totally get that online services need to sell ads and subscriptions to make money. No problem with that business model.
But on the flipside, it’s particularly irritating when the ads are by the same service you’re currently using, entirely to disrupt your experience, doing a song and dance about how, ‘Hey, if you want to avoid ads for ourself like this, just subscribe!’

FYI. The archive is the Mastodon backup mechanism. You should do this weekly or at least monthly. Since you're the first I know who's migrating, why not report how it goes so other people may be reassured (or horrified)?
Preeeeetty sure it was a peregrine I saw buzzing around and riling nesting birds. Small raptor, mostly white with a bit of brown on the underside. Came within 20 feet overhead. Gorgeous.
I’m reading Triptych, the first Will Trent book, by Karin Slaughter.
Very well written to start, but a quarter or so of the way in she starts veering into what I THINK I see setting up a twist. If I’m right, it’s a hell of a swing but needlessly lengthy.
So I’m probably wrong.
Either way, curious to see if/how she pulls it off.
