This most recent Reacher novel is certainly up to standard. This former army MP does not seek violence or want 'to put the world to rights'. He just doesn't 'like people who put the world to wrongs'. So the good guys always win but only after an enthralling, breathtaking read. This time it is North Dakota in a terribly cold winter, almost freezing the reader, and Jack is revealed as more vulnerable and fallible than he believed.
