Summary

Our coverage of King's Hard Boiled Mr. Mercedes continues as we cover the third chapter: Under Debbie's Blue Umbrella. We chat about how King is making us hate Brady, the examination of classic tropes of the genre, and the delightful new characters.

Discussion Question: Who is your favorite hard boiled detective in fiction?

Next week, Mr. Mercedes continues with the fourth chapter: Poison Bait
