Reviews
The first 2/3 of the book lacked action.
1By CareerMovesLame plot. The kidnappers had no use for Reacher; they should have killed him. If Reacher was so smart, he would have taken out all three bad guys rather than waiting until there were many more at the final destination. The bad guy wanted Holly for something other than a hostage; never explained what, so the reason behind her kidnapping isn’t answered. Wouldn’t the spy planes circling the area be able to spot a serviceable track through the forest. Given the roads around the area were blocked off, how did the van get through? Child one-upped the 1st Reacher move by having two bad FBI agents instead of one. Not original.. Too many thriller writers use FBI/CIA traitors.Reacher doesn’t disappoint!

5By Wet againJack Reacher gets caught up in a kidnapping. The victim is the daughter of a general and she is an highly trained FBI agent. The kidnappers are a cult who have separated themselves from America as an independent country. Non stop action and suspense. An excellent read!! My highest recommendation!!Action never stops
5By barefootladSo captivating. I couldn’t put it down until I’d read the whole story!Good story line, but…
3By mitch7340Glock 17 is not called Glock 17 because of the capacity. Glock 17 was Gaston Glocks 17th patent.
