![]() I always enjoy the Reacher books where he teams up with either old army buddies or some law enforcement agency. He steps in – and acts as his bodyguard for the rest of the story. That continues when he arrives in a town and sees Rusty Rutherford, an IT guy, under attack on the street. This episode is by no means central to the story, it just sets the scene of Reacher taking the side of the underdog. He takes matters into his own hands and sees that the band is compensated. It starts at a bar, where Reacher enjoys the music played by a band, and is appalled to find out that the management refused to pay them (and damaged one of their guitars). ![]() ![]() There is certainly more violence and Reacher is only too happy to hand out his own view of justice. ![]() If anything, I think this book sees the pace increase. For example, Lee Child has previously mentioned in interviews that, now Reacher is getting older, the pace of the books may have to slow down. ![]() I’ve read all of the previous books, so was intrigued to see how the style of writing might change. This is the first Jack Reacher thriller since Lee Child announced that he would be passing the baton to his brother, Andrew, to continue the series. ![]()
