Two small towns in Colorado: Hope and Despair. Between them, nothing but twelve miles of empty road. Jack Reacher can't find a ride, so he walks. All he wants is a cup of coffee. What he gets are four redneck deputies who want to run him out of town. Mistake. They're picking on the wrong guy. Jack Reacher is a big man, and he's in shape. No job, no address, no baggage. Nothing, except bloody-minded curiosity. What is the secret the locals seem so keen to hide? A hard man is good to find. Ex-military cop Reacher is today's most addictive hero. Now he pulls on a tiny loose thread, to unravel conspiracies that expose the most shocking truths. Because, after all, Jack Reacher has nothing to lose.
I love this series but I almost gave it up because of this book. Could never get to finish it. Too boring and it did not make much sense, at least till where I got to. It took me a month to even start the next book (I had been reading the series non stop until then), but I am glad I did. It has already hooked me up. So if you dont seem to like it, dont be a hardcore fan and waste your time, just skip it. Apparently even Lee Child can write bad book sometimes.
