Editorial Reviews:
Loner Jack Reacher gets a lift from seductive Carmen Greer, but it comes with a few hitches: a dangerous husband, a small town with secrets, and a plan. Now Reacher's part of it, and before the sun sets, the ride could cost Jack and Carmen their lives.

Summary: Reacher Doesn't Do Texas
Comment: I read this awhile back and was surprised to see Amazon still pushing it. Lee Child is a good author, but his books have fallen out of favor with me in that I catagorize them as "formula books." They are all basically the same, in different locales etc. I feel the same about James Patterson, yet people seem to love his books.

Child started out so well, but now has fallen into a predictable pattern. His character will get into trouble within the first hour or less after he arrives in a town. I can appreciate he wants to travel light, but this business of rinsing out his clothes and after another wearing, buying new and tossing the old. I feel sure he must have a certain 'air' about him. As others have pointed out. he didn't research Texas very well at all and the errors are numerous and, frankly, bothersome.

Reacher seems to be basically an empty shell, wandering about and taking what comes along. A drifter. I can't care about him anymore and that is sad, because he was so effective when he intercepted the bad guy after the pretty lady coming out of the cleaning store ........... way back in the early novel. Remember how good that was? And how lame the current efforts are.

Perhaps a new character would inspire Mr. Child. He is a talented author.

Comment: Another great Lee Child book. His main character draws you in up to your eyeballs. Read all his books and you'll fall in love with Jack Reacher.

Summary: Not up to par
Comment: I've read all of the Jack Reacher novels and what started out as great in book one has steadily fell off until I couldn't even finish the last few chapters. In his early books he seemed to be building Reacher's character and had some progression from book to book but he just seemed to phone it in on this one. The story had so many factual errors, and child just had Reacher march through all obstacles without the reader ever having to wonder if he would make it. For me if the hero is omnipotent then what's the use of reading the story. There needs to be some doubt to hold my interest.
