Mostly Renee and Maddie with a side of Bosch.

Reads like a tv proposal. Could use a couple more drafts for detail, inner lives, etc that made Bosch so great.

Waiting refers to the pain of families as they wait for cold case answers.

Also read Death comes for the archbishop/Willa Cather

I have such an antipathy towards the Catholic Church and its history, especially with First Nations. I struggled through and there are long poetic sequences and characters of depth.

Thoughts?
