This is my first foray into Lee Childs' territory, and I must say I'm a bit disappointed. I'd heard a lot of good things about his novels, but this one doesn't live up to the hype. 61 hours is proof positive that just because a story unfolds against the clock, doesn't automatically make it suspenseful. 2.5 stars.

I loved the setting and the countdown. While the ‘who’ was pretty clear to me from the beginning, I enjoyed seeing Reacher once again get mixed up in a small town’s troubles.

Two-day brain candy with the book's plot taking place over less than four days in real time. Jack Reacher arrived in Bolton, South Dakota in a bus accident and helps the local PD crack a case with help of the current head of the 110th. Quick, light read. Pleasantly surprised he didn't bed anyone, and love how the ending was left over, although we all know Reacher always survives.

Great story, surprising end. The book counts down to an event, and that event is important, but the rest of the story us so good and exciting and tense that it almost loses significance. I look forward to more Reacher books from Child, they're always worth reading.
