Down the road apiece

CIA and FBI were too busy measuring their dicks than co-operating with each other to inflitrate and properly investigate Al Qaida cells before the '98-'01 terrorists attacks (most notoriously in Kenya, Yemen and the World Trade Center) took place. The Looming Tower grabbed my interest immediately, as far as I know it's mostly based on true events, the characters were real people, so seeing how things played out is - in spite of the horrible consequences - exciting and entertaining. Jeff Daniels - in particular - as FBI's counter terrorism expert John O'Neill excelled.

Some people are blurred

Based on a Stephen King book and at least loosely based on the active years of serial killer BTK, aka Dennis Rader . Quite good otherwise ...
