Zeit Der Rache by Lee Child

Die USA werden von einer Reihe von Frauenmorden erschüttert. Bei allen Opfern handelt es sich um Armeeangehörige, die wegen sexueller Belästigung im Dienst vor Gericht gezogen waren.

Probably my favourite Reacher book yet

So this was the first Reacher book where it felt far more detective than action-hero. There was a lot less fist fights and car chases and such and more deliberating, discussing and using wits.

I enjoyed the slight change and it was a nice change.

Lee Child's writing continues to bug me a bit, describing places far too much with far too much description. Characters having conversations that lead the plot nowhere and feel like filler.

But this can all be forgiven as this was the most interesting Reacher book yet that has me guessing until the end. Whenever there's intrigue and suspicion to be had, you're always guessing in your head who the villain might be but it wasn't too obvious at any point for me.

The problem with this book was that I easily spotted the killer within the first couple chapters

A different Reacher novel this one, more of a murder mystery, which if I'd picked up on earlier I might have guessed the ending sooner than I did, I still guessed it about two thirds through but I would think most people would get it at that point.

The plot and execution of this book were amazing! The author made every page an absolute pleasure to read! Highly recommend.

The only reason I took 1 star away is that there was infidelity in the book that was brushed away as “not applicable” because the couple was already having issues and because “they didn't get naked”. And that is something I can't stand.
