I've only read the first in this Jack Reacher series, KILLING FLOOR, and liked it very much, but it didn't absolutely grab me and make me read the rest in the series right away like other authors such as Michael Connelly and James Lee Burke have with their Harry Bosch and Dave Robicheaux (respectively) series. I do want to read this book eventually, (after I've read several others on my TBR shelf) because I have a feeling that Jack Reacher will grow on me. But since I can easily find Child's books at local Goodwill and used book stores, I'm happy to set this paperback free and pick up another copy later. Promised this one to Buffyfan in a trade. Will get it out in the mail tomorrow. Thanks for the trade, Buffyfan!
Mailed out to Buffyfan today in a trade. Happy reading!
This just came from nancyluvsbooks. Thank you so much for the trade. I can't wait to read Jack Reacher's next adventure. Happy Reading!
This is finding a new home at my best bookcrossing buddy, Mellion108. Enjoy the book darlin' :O) Reacher pulls out a super big can of industrial stregth whoop ass.
The book is safe and sound in my greedy little hands. Thanks so much for sharing and for sending this my way, buffyfan. :) I loved Killing Floor and look forward to reading Jack Reacher's next set of adventures.
Paperback, 422 pages
From the back cover:
Jack Reacher is an innocent bystander—in the wrong place at the wrong time—when a woman is kidnapped. Now, he's at the mercy of a group of men demanding an impossible ransom, for this mysterious woman is worth far more than Reacher ever suspected. And though she doesn't ask for his help, he's going to give it to her...
Because ex-military policeman Jack Reacher is a hero. He's used to saving lives. But this time he's going to take a few before he's through....

Bravo! Reacher kicks some major butt yet again. I don't know why I like these books so much, but I can't resist peeking in on occasion to travel along with Jack Reacher as he saves damsels in distress, shoots up the bad guys, and broods a bit more about his wandering.
Thanks again, buffyfan, for sharing this. I've offered to send it along RABCK-style to another BookCrosser, so I hope to have it moving again soon.

received today. Thank you so much for the book. What a lovely surprise!!
mailed today to Krin who took it out of the Mystery VBB
Arrived today - thanks!
This was a good suspenseful thriller. I liked the interaction between Reacher and Holly Johnson as they both try to escape and figure out who captured them and why. I look forward to reading the next book in the series, Tripwire.
