A tour bus has crashed in a snowstorm and it lands Reacher in the middle of a deadly confrontation. 

Reacher protects an old woman so she can testify in court. Everything in the book takes space in a 61 hour time frame and this is presented in the book via a countdown throughout the book. 

This had a cliffhanger of an ending. A first for a Reacher book I think. I want to know
how he escaped from that bunker/hatch after that kind of explosion! It's almost like Child didn't know how when he wrote the book and thought he'd figure it out in the next book.


This book was good but feels like it is there to line up the next few books. Enjoyable and couldn't put it down towards the end. 

All of these books are approximately 15% too long. But it was fine.

#14 in the Jack Reacher series. If you haven't read them, start now with the first!

I enjoy the way Reacher thinks.

Formula still works

Classic Reacher. Love it. Hope Tom Cruise doesn't ruin this one for us Jack Reacher fans. That would be tragic.

One thing of the lesser Reachers. I guessed the twist about halfway through and found a lot of the action frustrating from then on.
