I only gave this three stars because it wasn't as bad as the last one, and I gave the last one three stars. It deserved only two, TBH. Andrew Child is a competent writer - he can do the style - but unfortunately he seems to be writing thrillers with Reacher as a character, rather than REACHER NOVELS. I don't want Reacher to be in only a third of the book, relegated to a bit part in his own story. He needs to be front and centre, cracking skulls and taking people down. Every year I get a little bit more disheartened by the decline of this franchise, and every year I excitedly buy the new one and think “maybe this will be a return to form”. Nope. Not this time. Not sure I'll be rushing out to get the new one next year.
