One Shot, Lee Child

I just finished One Shot, by Lee Child.It is the latest in the Jack Reacher series. Reacher is an ex-MP, loner type who can’t seem to stay out of trouble, and I like the way Child portrays him. I wish I was a big-ass ex-MP who kicked-ass, took names, got the girls, and so on.

The only knock I have about this book is that the bad guy’s plan is way too elaborate, and sometimes things come a little too easy for Reacher. I know he spent years and years as an investigator, but sometimes he seems almost clairvoyant.

I’d recommend this book to anyone who likes a good mystery/thriller type book and I’m looking forward to reading the next in the Reacher series.
