Even a short story with Reacher is better than almost any other book

dark tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

Just doesn't fit with the reacher series.   Kinda. Meh. But quick read.

I get that these .5 books are supposed to be novellas or short stories, but this one was entirely too short. Simply a scene... :(

Lackluster. The twist wasn’t all that great on this one.

Another solid short story that sort of fills in the gaps between the primary Jack Reacher stories.
