After reading the first three of the Jack Carr's books I was really looking forward to this show. What a disappointment!
The transition of this book "Terminal List" to an Amazon Prime video show is pretty cheese. No time spent developing Characters, short cuts in story line. I think this is the new standard. Only 8 episodes (keeps production costs way down) instead of 10 (remember when 13 episodes was the norm?). Lots of corners has to be cut with only 8 episodes.
Oh well... its not the end of the world because another good book goes to TV / movie and is not very interesting.
