Jack Reacher is back! The ??utterly addictive? (The New York Times) series continues as acclaimed author Lee Child teams up with his brother, Andrew Child, fellow thriller writer extraordinaire.

??One of the many great things about Jack Reacher is that he??s larger than life while remaining relatable and believable. The Sentinel shows that two Childs are even better than one.???James Patterson

As always, Reacher has no particular place to go, and all the time in the world to get there. One morning he ends up in a town near Pleasantville, Tennessee.
But there??s nothing pleasant about the place.
In broad daylight Reacher spots a hapless soul walking into an ambush. ??It was four against one? . . . so Reacher intervenes, with his own trademark brand of conflict resolution.

Reacher is intrigued. There??s more to the story. The bad guys who jumped Rutherford are part of something serious and deadly, involving a conspiracy, a cover-up, and murder??all centered on a mousy little guy in a coffee-stained shirt who has no idea what he??s up against.

A Jack Reacher Novel that is way too long. Too many details. Not nearly as good as it could have ben.
  earthwind | Dec 6, 2023 |
Ready to read and entertaining. This one was more improbable than most .. ( )

Well, I think Jack Reacher is about done. With Lee Child handing over the reins to his brother, it just isn't the same Reacher I've loved over the years. This wasn't a bad book. It just wasn't up to the quality of writing and storytelling I've come to expect in the Reacher series. I couldn't put down most of the previous novels, but this one had a difficult time holding my interest. I generally read a Reacher novel in a day or two. This one took 10, and I had plenty of reading time on my hands. I'll probably read the next one, but I'm not going to miss it if I don't. ( )

Another quality Reacher, I mean, it’s book 20 something, you know if you like these or not by now. And I do. If I had to come up with something to complain about, I guess you could say it was almost too easy for Reacher this time...that is all. ( )

As Lee (or is it Andrew) always says: "Rule one: if you don’t know the trouble you’re in, keep Reacher by your side." ( )
