Do you think the murders could be related to an escort / brothel business? If so does this help identify any suspects?

Yes. I think any of the men who used the service could potentially be a suspect.

It must be related somehow.

I'm going to stick my neck out here and say 'No'. I can't see why, all of a sudden, someone using an escort service would turn killer... ?
I'm still wondering about Minnie's money(?)

It's very plausible that the escort/brothel business could be about the murders. The money Tom is receiving could be payment for services. But Tom was a victim. I still think Simon is guilty but don't know why he would kill Alis or Tom.

I am again a couple of questions ahead of myself. That was my immediate thought when I saw the secret payments and that the list was all men and most of them worked with the oilers.

I just can't see a big prostitution ring without more people knowing about it. That's a small, gossipy community. I believe it's completely plausible and makes sense but I'm not totally on board.

I think it is mostly probably linked to this sex ring but not sure why, unless jealousy. Could that point to Andy?
