The Lavender Scare and McCarthyism serve as the backdrop for Showtime's 'Fellow Travelers,' a miniseries based on Thomas Mallon's 2007 novel that stars Matt Bomer and Jonathan Bailey.

Novelist Thomas Mallon's 2007 historical romance 'Fellow Travelers,' having been translated in 2016 into a much produced opera, has now become a melodramatic, one might say almost say operatic, TV miniseries, created by Ron Nyswaner and premiering Sunday on Showtime.

This will lead to Hawk finding Tim a job working in McCarthy's office, which will lead to Tim giving Hawk a book inscribed 'You're wonderful,' which will lead in turn to them getting into bed together, before and after some more expository dialogue and character-building personal revelations. Tim has placed Hawk within McCarthy's office because he wants a spy there in order to protect his old friend Sen.
