The Hard Way


I borrowed this sentence from a review on Amazon because it tells exactly what i think about Jack Reacher..."As far as I'm concerned, the tight-lipped, human arsenal Jack Reacher is the most compelling figure in contemporary escapist thriller fiction. " [Gary Griffiths (Los Altos Hills, CA United States)]
The Hard way is the 10th Reacher Novel by Lee Child and its incredible from start to finish. Reacher is doing nothing but sitting on a side walk cafe having an espresso and the next thing he knows he is yet again involved in an investigation...to help a distraught husband find his kidnapped wife and daughter....Reacher has a new heroine...Lauren Pauling..a retired FBI agent who helps him in the search for the truth...
My lips are sealed about the plot...all i can warn u is that you are not going to put this book down from start to finish...it will hook you like all the others before it....
No other hero...except Kenzie/Gennaro pair has captured my imagination like Reacher...he is quiet...does not believe in staying in once place...leaving a trail...and at the end of the book...there is no settling down...the perfect hero to write 10 books and more about...
