Continuing the Reacher saga...late to the game with this as so many other things. I made some fun of the first two in this series and have to say that they are getting better. In the first book, Reacher had no problem killing 6 trained assassins with his bare hands...this time he has a little trouble taking out 3 mean guys who are killers but not so professional. He also takes a bullet and is actually injured and needs to recover. There are a few other details that are awesome but still so many things that make no sense. The "person of interest" in this saga is a Vietnam vet whose parent's want to know the truth about what happened to him 30 years ago. Well, it seems like he moved 50 miles away from them, became a complete bad ass but never bothered to change his name. Still, he remains a mystery and nobody can find him. Sure, this is 1999 and there was no google, but please, that does not make a person impossible to find. Anyway, overlook all those rather obvious things and the book is a lot of fun. Reacher is still amazing and the St. Louis military record center plays a roll as does the NY Public library. I will continue reading the series as I have time and I will continue to overlook the craziness of much of it.
