One Shot by Lee Child

3.0

I really enjoyed this one. I liked that this lead off with Reacher there to prove guilt rather than innocence. Why only three stars then? My gripe with this was how they framed Barr. Lee Child offers one model and I found that one to be much more palatable than the actual truth. I understand that it had to be the latter rather than the former because it would have been damn near impossible to disprove, but I wish Child had figured a way around that because it just didn't sit right with me. Now, if he hadn't posited that initial idea, I probably wouldn't have come up with it but once it got in my head, I really preferred it. Otherwise, a typical Reacher book. Quick, easy, enjoyable read.
