In From the Cold
Feb. 14th, 2022 12:47 pmIt's the weekend after a con, which is usually a time of recuperation. However, I have recently had some good news on the publishing front (details not yet announced) so I have book rewrites to do. But I can only write so many hours before my brain turns to mush, so I found some time to absorb some Netflix.
Specifically, I watched all eight episodes so far of the spy thriller In From the Cold. From Wikipedia, "The series follows an American single mother and ex-Russian spy as she is forced back into her old life after the CIA learns about her secret." It's pretty good action-TV stuff. The only downside is that the lead character has not been an active spy for 20-some years. Although she is shown spending some mental effort to get back in the game, her physical prowess is just like she'd never stopped training. I found that a bit off, but not enough to change the channel.
