Major disappointment

I've read five or six of the Reacher books. I would say Tripwire was the best, and this was the worst. I gave this three stars because much of the writing is quite compelling and true to the character--but there is a major disappointment in terms of plausibility failure. I won't give it away (it's not quite as bad as "then he woke up and realized it was all a dream," but not too far behind that). Let's call it a plot device you definitely wouldn't expect from a good writer. If you can overlook this big problem, and you like Reacher, then you'll probably enjoy the rest of the book. Two and a half stars, leaning a bit toward three.

Reacher!

As usual, Lee Child creates a very interesting and thrilling story about the "hero" Jack Reacher. This story is in the time before he took to the roads, roaming around in the States. He is living in New York, dating the love of his life and an unfortunate involvment in a restaurant owners trouble with the maffia, Reacher gets accused of murdering woman he has known as an MP in the army.
It's very good, but some parts can get a little bit boring.
Still, from me it get's 4 stars! Hard to put down!

Some Insights

I am reading the series in order. I think this was the best one yet. It leaves my very excited to continue the Reacher series. We began to see more depth in Reacher as he struggles with understanding himself. The story moves forward at a wonderful pace. It was just great. While reading this I had the opportunity to hear Lee Child speak. He gave some insights that I think will be helpful. First he said he starts the book at the beginning and does not really know how it will turn out until he gets there. He also said that when he is stumped he has Reacher get a cup of coffee. Child does the same.

Running Blind

Jack Reacher is one of my favorite heros, and all of his books are excellent. I would recommend this book.

reviews: page 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Across the country women are being murdered by a killer who leaves no evidence, no fatal wounds, no signs of struggle, and no clues to a motive. They are, truly, perfect crimes. In fact, the only thing that links the victims is the man they all knew: Jack Reacher.
