Two detectives are called to a small mining town in the Asturian mountains where a young woman who had been left for dead for months has suddenly appeared, leaving the detectives to question what dark forces are at work.
In the evening Esme wanted to watch a Spanish language movie. After some searching and browsing on Netflix we selected Infiesto. I liked the movie and give it a 7 out of 10.
In the afternoon I finished Alien Clay by Adrian Tchaikovsky. I liked the story, it reminded me a little bit of Deathworld 1 by Harry Harrison.
Carmen Sanchez is a tough Homeland Security agent who plays by the rules. But when her sister is attacked, revealing a connection to a series of murders across Southern California, she realizes a conventional investigation will not be enough to stop the ruthless perpetrator.
With nowhere else to turn, Sanchez enlists the aid of Professor Jake Heron, a brilliant and quirky private security expert who, unlike Sanchez, believes rules are merely suggestions. The two have a troubled past, but he owes her a favor and she’s cashing in. They team up to catch the assailant, who, mystifyingly, has no discernible motive and fits no classic criminal profile. All they have to go on is a distinctive tattoo and a singular obsession that gives this chillingly efficient tactician his nickname: Spider.
Over the next seventy-two hours, Sanchez and Heron find themselves in the midst of a lethal chess match with the killer as they race to stop the carnage. As the victims mount, so do the risks. Because this spider’s web of intrigue is more sinister―and goes far deeper―than anyone could possibly anticipate.
In the afternoon I started to read Fatal Intrusion by Jeffery Deaver and Isabella Maldonado.
Four freshmen navigate the terrors of adolescence at their first-ever high school party.
In the evening Alice, Esme, and I watched Incoming. I liked the movie and had a few laughs. I give it a 7 out of 10.
After discovering that her boyfriend is married, Carly meets the wife he's been betraying; when yet another affair is discovered, all three women team up to plot revenge on the three-timing S.O.B.
In the evening Esme and I watched The Other Woman. The movie was a bit boring and I give it a 5 out of 10.
