He died much later, after the split second of bravery had faded into long hours of wretched gasping fear, and after the long hours of fear had exploded into long minutes of insane screaming panic. And would they really want to 'make out' right next to the grave of the guy they just buried – especially as she keeps professing her love for some other chap we don't know about. When Holly's father finds out his daughter has been kidnapped,he along with Holly's staff with the FBI are hot on her trail. As I've said about 'Killing Floor', I'll say now too, these books absolutely does NOT need 550+ pages for the scope of the stories they're telling.

The decision had cost him ten thousand dollars a year in income, but it had bought him back his sanity, and it had bought him undying respect and blind affection from the agents he worked with. Reacher makes this calculation and then follows the woman into the car and is taken along for the ride. She'd thrown him a would-you-mind look and he'd thrown her a no-problem look and scooped up the metal cane. The principal problem, which is not unique to this novel, is that the bad guys act completely irrationally when it comes to Jack Reacher.Exército de um homem só, visto que na trama, politicos de alto escalão e militares de alta patente exercem papel inoperante em termis de inteligência e reação. ovo je bilo toliko plitko, naivno, predvidljivo, razvučeno, sa kvalitetom pisanja ispod proseka i sa jako iritantnim glavnim likom da sam u više navrata htela da odustanem iako to nikada ne radim. Child presents his tense, action-packed adventure in vivid prose, as lean and capable as his central character. The floorboards were eighteen inches wide, from back when lumbermen had the pick of any tree they wanted.

I'm working on my own all day long in the library industry without my clients, students, or teachers in front of me to help. A long walk down the carpeted corridors of a lakeside house appropriate to a man who earned a thousand dollars on each of those three hundred days he worked. Meanwhile, Reacher, after witnessing Borken execute Loder, the leader of the kidnappers, for multiple failures, is shown around the camp with the intent of sending him back to the States with information on the militia's credibility. I have no idea how many ladies read this series, but I would imagine Reacher has a larger male fan base.They would be thinking about second mortgages and even second jobs, and they'd be thinking about the years of private detective work they were going to have to put in to boost up the mean government pension.

Wrong time wrong place, reacher helps a woman who has dropped a cane outside a laundry service, flanked by three guys with guns they are took in a car and driven away. She was just sitting there, swaying, cuffed to his wrist, thinking and planning like maybe she was trained to do, as well. The bad guys here were just straight up wacko, whereas I prefer my bad guys to be a little more complex and captivating in their level of crazy, if that makes any sense. This is told in the third person, which is necessary, as there are times when Reacher isn’t with the kidnap victim, and we need to know what’s happening with her. While in Chicago, Jack Reacher is helping a young woman with an injured leg with her dry cleaning when they're captured at gunpoint by three men and thrown into a car, then transferred into a van and driven cross country.The businessmen now looked like scumbags, not solid citizens, and the agents were sick and tired of looking at them as they rode the commuter trains home. He sat and heard it out until the last organ blast echoed to silence, which meant that as he got out of his car the three men were near enough for him to interpret some kind of intention in their approach. It turns out to be a very long ride in an Econoline van, all the way from Chicago to northwestern Montana, where a nutty but well-armed militia group is preparing to declare its independence from the United States. The chairs were substantial and leather, and the table was made of fine hardwood, but any tendency for the place to look like a corporate boardroom was defused by the scruffy government wall covering and the cheap carpet. The dialogue, too, often bothers me, especially with all the constant "he said this/he said that" nonsense.

As any crime fiction reader understands by now, in no more than three seconds tops, Reacher could have these two thugs on the ground whimpering like sick puppies with no problem whatsoever. She meets Jackson, an FBI agent working undercover, who offers to help her escape, but she refuses to leave without Reacher. After Reacher fails to take advantage of an opportunity to escape during the night, Holly insists that he let her handle things.
