Product Description
People say that knowledge is power. The more knowledge, the more power. Suppose you knew the winning numbers in the lottery? What would you do? You would run to the store. You would mark the numbers on the play card. And you would win. Same for the stock market. Same for basketball or the horses or anything. Same for killing people.
Women are dying. Women who have nothing in common except the fact that they once worked for the military. And they knew Jack Reacher. How and why these women are in danger completely baffles the elite FBI team effective the case. There is no trace evidence. There are no links between victims. Their bodies have no fatal wounds. And the killer entered their homes and exited again like a summer breeze. Are these perfect crimes? There is only one certainty: there is a new kind of killer out there, one so cool, cautious, and careful that even the brilliant Reacher is left running blind.Amazon.com Review
Jack Reacher is back, dragged into what looks like a series of grisly serial murders by a team of FBI profilers who aren’t really sure he’s not the killer they’re looking for, but judge that even if he isn’t, he’s smart enough to help them find the real killer. And what they’ve got on the ex-MP, who’s starred in three previous Lee Child thrillers (Tripwire, Die Trying, Killing Floor), is enough to ensure his grudging cooperation: sham charges stemming from Reacher’s unplanned involvement in a protection shakedown and the threat of harm to the woman he likes.
The killer’s victims have only one thing in common–all of them brought sexual harassment charges against their military superiors and all resigned from the army after winning their cases. The manner, if not the cause, of their deaths is gruesomely the same: they died in their own bathtubs, covered in gallons of concealment paint, but they didn’t drown and they weren’t shot, strangled, poisoned, or attacked. Even the FBI forensic specialists can’t figure out why they seem to have gone willingly to their mysterious deaths. Reacher isn’t sure whether the killings are an elaborate take in-up for corruption involving stolen military hardware or the work of a maniac who’s smart enough to place absolutely no clues behind. This compelling, iconic antihero dead-ends in a lot of alleys before he finally facts it out, but every one is worth exploring and the suspense doesn’t let up for a second. The ending will come as a perfect surprise to even the most careful reader, and as Reacher strides off into the sunset, you’ll marvel what’s in store for him in his next adventure. –Jane Adams

This book grabs you right from the start and throws you into the tense atmosphere and forceful action. It keeps you one the edge of your seat.
Jack Reacher is blackmailed by the FBI to solve a series of murders that he’s first been accused of and later been absolved of. Jack travels the country in an effort to solve these murders. Even at the end, when I just can’t imagine how these murders are committed, Jack solves the problem and saves yet another woman.
Jack is smart, appealing, well read and at times I even get a chuckle out of his comments and behavior. He is also hard and knows how to do what needs to be done in a forceful situation. Jack takes care of the small guys and brings the huge hideous nasties down to size. He is my new hero.
This isn’t my first Jack Reacher novel nor will it be my last. In fact, I even like the novels by this leader that are not Reacher novels.
Well worth the money.
Delight in.

Fantastic storytelling. More than one plot developing at the same time. Mr Child ranks among my favorites.

For persons such as myself, who were a bit disappointed with Lee Child’s “Tripwire,” take heart! Jack Reacher is back at his very best; not too smart, not too slow witted, but just right. Also, he’s still very capable of handling most adversaries and charming all (well, nearly all) women and pissing off most men. It is a quick paced thriller in search of a serial killer which takes many twists and turns, but entertains all the way. It leaves you a bit exhausted, but exhilarated at the same time! No leader seems to get along with the FBI, but this book has a lot of fun with their procedures, while bending a few military rules along the way. Read it!

Mr. Child could use better words to convey a deeper feeling or situation. He is so deep that makes additional thriller writers appear an inch shallow and down under. Jack Reacher is so far one of the most(not too many) appealing characters that ever made by a writer, who are really on a par with each additional. What amazed me most is that Mr. Child’s writing is such an internationally standardized modern English not just British English that used to be zigzagging and indirect. The flow of the sentences and paragraphs are so smoothly putting out that permanently makes you apprecitate his width of knowing how to choose a better and deeper word to clarify a feeling or situation. This talent and knowledge are rarely to be establish among additional so-called thriller writers and building his every word worths the money you’ve paid for. The burden of relationship of his newly bought secular personal effects, either real estate property or romance, only makes Reacher more realistic. But the FBI people made this time seemed to be reasonably unconvincing. The way Blake treating Larma and the latter’s insubordinate attitude is absolutely impossible and inprobable in FBI’s ethics, unless they have some sexual relationship, therefore did not ring right at all. All of the additional FBI’s characters, well, Harper seems to be more acceptable as an FBI agent and more normal, others are just a fine line away from thugs; a situation Mr. Child should pay more attention to fine tune before or during writing. Also, a nation wide serial killing rampage is also fundamentally weak this time that made me feel a bit impatient to read along after two third of the book. Again, I jumped over persons hateful and stupid itallic paragraphs and I can assure you, Mr. Child, lot of readers might be just like what I did. So please don’t try to use too many lean to right itallic sentences, especially long and tiresome paragraphs. Also, how to accurately show the readers the way that the real FBI is dealing with a nation-wide crime, Mr. Child should do a deeper research before production; a more authentic and convincing task force or just of bunch thug-like agents? Don’t “running blind” is what I want to give to Mr. Child this time. A excellent book means that when readers reflect it twice, all the logic premises still could stand quick albeit bleaching the paper money.

It is a refreshingly excellent thriller. One could consider it a tongue-in-cheek sequel to Silence of the Lambs, and it is way better than over-hyped Hannibal.
