Black and Blue (2019)

A rookie New Orleans police officer is forced to balance her identity as a black woman after she witnesses two corrupt cops committing murder.

In the evening Alice, Esme, and I watched Black and Blue. I liked the movie and give it a 7 out of 10.

The Raven Tower

For centuries, the kingdom of Iraden has been protected by the god known as the Raven.

He watches over his territory from atop a tower in the powerful port of Vastai. His will is enacted through the Raven's Lease, a human ruler chosen by the god himself. His magic is sustained by the blood sacrifice that every Lease must offer. And under the Raven's watch, the city flourishes.

But the Raven's tower holds a secret. Its foundations conceal a dark history that has been waiting to reveal itself. . .and to set in motion a chain of events that could destroy Iraden forever.

In the evening I started in The Raven Tower by Ann Leckie. I had already read her excellent science fiction series; the Imperial Radch trilogy, so I have high expectations of this book.
