Cover of Persuader (Jack Reacher, No. 7) |
Jack Reacher foiled a kidnapping attempt, only to reveal that the victim's father is a suspected kingpin in gunrunning, possibly involved in a kidnapped Federal agent... and an enemy Reacher thought he killed long time ago... As Reacher hired on as a bodyguard, he tries to search the house looking for evidence of the agent, while dealing with enemies who started to suspect him.
Lee Child by now is great in ratcheting up the pressure slowly, as the tension gets thicker and thicker in the air as he gets closer and closer to the truth. The book also has quite a bit of flashback where Reacher revealed why he thought he had killed the other guy. Clearly, this time he'll make SURE he really IS dead.
Undercover work is always tense, and Reacher have no problem this time dealing out some justice.
