A largely unengaging sequel to most of the earlier books, while Reacher was still an MP in the Army. The situation seems contrived with little or no interaction between characters. He doesn't even sleep with the lone female protagonist. Justice is served but not for Reacher as he admits to saving the wrong women and not, sadly, for the reader, who misses the good old days with the brilliant loner ( ) This book is set in 1992, and takes us back to Reacher when he was a Captain in the army. Reacher is brought in as a member of a high level team set up by the Secretary of Defence to determine why five former scientists have been murdered. The thing they have in common is they all worked at an American research facility in India in 1969. Something happened at that centre that caused a quick closure of the facility, and a big disbursement of staff back to American shores. It was nice to see Reacher as an army officer, and his interaction with other army staff and superiors. He is still the Jack Reacher that we know and love though--big, brawny, an excellent tactician, and someone who won't tolerate bullshit, and wants to get to the truth at all costs. It also became clear to me why he decided to leave the army and strike out on his own. This is an excellent book, and Reacher and his team's efforts to get to the bottom of this big and very secret mystery kept me guessing until the end. If you are a Jack Reacher fan, you need to read this book. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML:The gripping new Jack Reacher thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling authors Lee Child and Andrew Child A string of mysterious deaths. A long-classified mission. A young MP with nothing to lose. 1992. All across the United States respectable, upstanding citizens are showing up dead. These deaths could be accidents, and they don’t appear to be connected—until a fatal fall from a high-floor window attracts some unexpected attention. That attention comes from the secretary of defense. All of a sudden he wants an interagency task force to investigate. And he wants Jack Reacher as the army’s representative. If Reacher gets a result, great. If not, he’s a convenient fall guy. But office politics isn’t Reacher’s thing. Three questions quickly emerge: Who’s with him, who’s against him, and will the justice he dispenses be the official kind . . . or his own kind? Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
