#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER“The indomitable Reacher burns up the pages.”—USA Today Four people in a car, hoping to make Chicago by morning. One man driving, another telling stories that don’t add up. A woman in the back, silent and worried. And a hitchhiker with a broken nose. An hour behind them, the FBI descends on an old pumping station where a man was stabbed to death—the knife work professional, the killers nowhere to be seen. All Jack Reacher wanted was a ride to Virginia. All he did was stick out his thumb. But he soon discovers he has hitched more than a ride. He has tied himself to a massive conspiracy, in which nothing is what it seems, and nobody is telling the truth. “Furious action . . . [Lee] Child keeps the pacing swift and the surprises rolling. . . . [A] feverishly thrilling series.”—The Miami Herald “Smart, breathless . . . [with] one of the best female characters in the whole Reacher series.”—The New York Times “Subtle and nuanced [with] seductive writing and irresistible plot twists.”—Newsweek Don’t miss Lee Child’s short story “Deep Down” and a sneak peek of his new novel, Never Go Back, in the back of the book.

This is the third Jack Reacher novel I've read, but I've been jumping around in the chronology. I believe I've read the first, and then this and one other, which I believe are both fairly recent. I suppose I could look that up, but it's not all that important. But my point was that I was a little su...

OK, it was a Reacher book, so I could not read it without thinking of 16 other Reacher book that I have read, which made it OK, just OK, not great, unlike many others of the series. Hoping for a better effort next time.
