Jack Reacher is often found minding his own business when something happens right in front of him that propels him into another mission. In this case, he's walking down a street in Boston when he sees a dead man--or at least a man who is supposed to have been dead for ten years. And if anyone should know that the guy is supposed to be dead, it's Reacher. The man in question, a particularly nasty character named Quinn, had crossed paths with Reacher back when Reacher was still in the army. Reacher Jack Reacher is often found minding his own business when something happens right in front of him that propels him into another mission. Reacher supervised an investigation of Lee Child - Jack Reacher Collection: Book 7 & Book 8: Persuader which went horribly wrong and left Reacher with some deep emotional scars. To see Quinn now, obviously alive, stuns Reacher and he now feels obligated to clean up some unfinished business. It's otherwise somewhat difficult to review this book, or even to describe the setup, without giving away the Enemy that occurs early on and that readers would be best left to discover for themselves. Suffice it to say that, like most of the books in this series, the action is hard-hitting and Reacher will literally be pushed to his limits before all is said and done. The setting is particularly good; the villains are particularly villainous, and all-in-all, this was a great book to reread while in social isolation. View all 5 comments.

Audio MP3 on CD. Chapter One The cop climbed out of his car exactly four minutes before he got shot. He moved like he knew his fate in advance. He pushed the door against the resistance of a stiff hinge and the Enemy slowly on the worn vinyl seat and planted both feet flat on the road. Then he grasped the door frame with both hands and heaved himself up and out. He stood in the cold clear air for a second and then turned and pushed the door shut again behind him. Held still for a second longer. Then he stepped forward and leaned against the side of the hood up near the headlight. The car was a seven-year-old Chevy Caprice. It was black and had no police markings. But it had three radio antennas and plain chrome hubs. Most cops you talk to swear the Caprice is the best police vehicle ever built. This guy looked like he agreed with them. He looked like a veteran plain-clothes detective with the whole of the motor pool at his disposal. Like he drove the ancient Chevy because he wanted to. I could see that kind of stubborn old-timer personality in the way he held himself. He was wide and bulky in a plain dark suit made from some kind of heavy wool. He was tall but stooped. An old man. He turned his head and looked north and south along the road and then craned his thick neck to glance back over his shoulder at the college gate. He was thirty Lee Child - Jack Reacher Collection: Book 7 & Book 8: Persuader away from me. The college gate itself was purely a ceremonial thing. Two tall brick pillars just rose up from a long expanse of the Enemy lawn behind the sidewalk. Connecting the pillars was a high double gate made from iron bars bent and folded and twisted into fancy shapes. It was shiny black. It looked like it had just been repainted. It was probably repainted after every winter. It had no security function. Anybody who wanted to avoid it could drive straight across the lawn. It was wide open, anyway. There was a driveway behind it with little knee-high iron posts set eight feet back on either side. They had latches. Each half of the gate was latched into one of them. Wide open. The driveway led on down to a huddle of mellow brick buildings about a hundred yards away.
