So much better than the previous book in the series. Fast paced, Reacher in charge - what more could you want ?
Think it’s time to put Reacher to bed. Great run- very much enjoyed the series-- gave the Lee / Andrew Colab one last chance but I have to tap out after this one.
Jack Reacher books are so easy to read and this didn't disappoint. One of the better of the ones also written by Andrew Child as well. Fun little Christmas Scorpion short story at the end too.
It is 1992 and eight people have been found dead. They are in many places in the United States and don’t seem to be connected. One of the victims gets the attention of the Secretary of Defense and he calls for an inter-agency task force. Reacher is assigned to this task force. He is a great soldier, but he doesn’t believe in hiding the truth to protect others. What is the link between these victims? Will this end with official justice or Reacher justice?
The Secret is the twenty-eighth Jack Reacher novel, and it transports us back 30 years during his Army career. Readers who have followed the series will enjoy seeing new insights into an event that shaped who Jack became and readers who just picked this book up will enjoy a one-off story and then feel compelled to find the first in the series. The adventure isn’t as intense as some of the other books, yet the story almost seems to read itself.

This one felt a little spare and formulaic at times, but even mediocre Reacher is still fun to read. It did throw a few twists and surprises in the mix that gave me a few happy "what the heck? moments. Definitely not the best Reacher ever, but if you like reading Reacher novels it can give you a bit of comfort.

It's a Reacher book - you know what you are getting into. But I will say it was by far the best of the co-written books. Made me a little hopeful for when Andrew takes over for good.
Do I feel like I’m reading the same book every time I read a Jack Reacher? Yes
Do I love it anyway? Also yes.
