Well-researched, well-written, narrative and story line are terrific. I gladly pay the subscription price, even if it did pop up midway through a series.

Next week: why Fred and Rosemary West never did it 🙄. Also, is the season on Sheikh Mohammed aime... more

I have no problem with paying to list... more
