Let's be honest, thrillers like this are brain candy summer blockbuster in a book. And this one did not disappoint. It meets expectations. And though I had to put it down mid-read, when I picked it back up it was a page turner up until the end.

This book is SO GOOD! The main character is great, as expected. The beginning is confusing but intentionally so and it works beautifully. I'm not usually a fan of the type of opening this book has (sheesh it's hard not to give spoilers), but I liked it here. There are so many Chekhov's guns and you just know they'll all be used in a big explosion at the end and it's so perfect and satisfying.

This is the first Reacher book since the very first book in the series that is told in the first person. There are few changes that make this book stand out from the rest but mostly they are superficial. The main baddie in this book is someone from Reacher's past, and the first one he hated going into. Most books he grows to the realization that he is going to kill the bad guy, but here he starts out from that point of view. One thing I really liked about the book is it had that isolation feel that my favorite book in the series had, Die Trying. Mostly set on a deserted coast of Maine. The book has trippy begining that will leave Reacher fans wondering what the hell is going on. But this is still a great action packed book for fans of action movies. It does stand out from the series as a whole, but not signifigantly.
