Publisher Description
New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author DIANE CAPRI Does It Again! NEW Hunt for Jack Reacher book!
"Full of thrills and tension, but smart and human, too. Kim Otto is a great, great character - I love her." Lee Child, #1 World Wide Bestselling Author of Jack Reacher Thrillers
Jack Reacher: Friend or Enemy?
It's been a while since we first met Lee Child's Jack Reacher in Killing Floor. Fifteen years and sixteen novels later, Reacher still lives off the grid, until trouble finds him, and then he does whatever it takes, much to the delight of readers and the dismay of villains. Now someone big is looking for him. Who? And why? Hunting Jack Reacher is a dangerous business, as FBI Special Agents Kim Otto and Carlos Gaspar are about to find out. Otto and Gaspar are by-the-book hunters who know when to break the rules; Reacher is a stone cold killer. Reacher is a wanted man, but is he their friend or their enemy? Only the secrets hidden in Margrave, Georgia will tell them.
Customer Reviews
I DO know Jack
I admit it, I'm a Jack Reacher fan. I've been pacing myself, I read about 6 different authors who just don't write fast enough. As a result, I make a point of only reading 2-3 Reacher novels a year.
Apple's iBook store showed me the 'hunt for Jack Reacher' series as books those of us who read the works of Lee Child might also like. At first I was sceptical, but then it popped up in another online source and I thought, 'what the heck'. I'm glad I did.
Knowing the 'real' story (Killing Floor) when Otto & Gaspar don't made me keep wanting to yell at my iPad. Waste of energy, I know, but YOU try to watch them go down blind alleys and see how you do!
Note to Child & Capri: Lots of places where Reacher should show up (how often has he dealt with the Fibbies since Margrave?) One place it would be hard to sanitize the record is New York State probate records. Leon Garber left a house to him in his will. To wrap up the estate, he will would have had to go through probate, otherwise nothing could be done with the house (Reacher couldn't sell it, even by proxie).
P.S. Was "Archie Leach" meant as an inside joke?
Disappointing
I was so excited to get this book especially with the recommendation of Lee Child as I loved the Reacher series. This book was ok but not really as good as I hoped. I read the next in the series and found it less interesting. I was tired of the constant stomach pains of Kim and the action and dialogue became forced and mundane. Read it quickly for brief interest, especially if you can get it free, but it doesn’t come even close to the suspense and excitement of Lee Child’s.
Very good read
If you are a Reacher fan, then this series from Diane Capri is for you. If you don't know Reacher, don't worry, this is still a very good read.
