A Wanted Man by Lee Child

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I've officially read all Lee Child's novels. All 18 of them. This one puts Reacher in the backseat of a car after catching a lift hitch-hiking in Nebraska. Nearby, someone is found killed. An eyewitness reports two guys fleeing the scene in dark suits. The police launch a manhunt and Reacher works out his lift is not what it seems. The third person is a woman and something isn't quite right with her. The author spends a huge amount of time describing the roadways going through Nebraska and Kansas, that I'm sure should I be lost there someday, this book alone should get me back on track without Google Maps assistance. Reacher eventually finds himself teamed up with a female FBI agent to track down the bad guys. Some twists and surprises as would be expected and Reacher blasting his way through so he could get on his way to Virginia to look up a woman with a nice voice. Classic Reacher, classic Lee Child but maybe a bit off his game.
