Nothing gets me as excited as when I have a new Jack Reacher book in my hands. Well nothing lasts forever and I was disappointed in this one.

It started out exciting, Jack, an FBI andCIA agent are to be sent to Night School after they all received medals for their last mission. Of course, it was a front so no one was to know they were on a secret mission to find out why an American was trying to pay100 million dollars for something unknown.

The story unfolds as this intricate plot develops and I must say it was uninspired and humdrum! There were only two instances of Reacher's "Superman's" antics which I always look forward to.

I don't mind reading about the younger Reacher while in the Army, it certainly allows the author many story options to give us insight of his remarkable personality.

There is a review here somewhere that really made me laugh out load. The writer was talking about the Reacher we know, after Army life when he was traveling anywhere and everywhere he happened to land. She was wondering how he can go so many days wearing the same
underwear and sweaty socks!! I got a chuckle from that one.

Here's hope Mr. Child brings The Real Jack Reacher back!
