Then he turned again and strolled to the credenza at the end of the room for a cup of coffee from the filter machine. I just like a good story with interesting characters – I don’t want to see the horrific brutality, thanks.

I give you Montana's very own spectacularly vile and massively mad separatist big - bad - Beau Borken. Reacher will always save the day, if he stuffs up he realises straight away and will always know how to right the wrong. The principal problem, which is not unique to this novel, is that the bad guys act completely irrationally when it comes to Jack Reacher. I have no idea how many ladies read this series, but I would imagine Reacher has a larger male fan base.Exército de um homem só, visto que na trama, politicos de alto escalão e militares de alta patente exercem papel inoperante em termis de inteligência e reação. The FBI is desperate to rescue the woman, a Special Agent from the Chicago office, because the FBI always - always - takes care of its own, and because this woman is not just another agent.

Borken drags Holly out while her father watches on a spy plane camera feed and tries to force her father to give in to his demands. They were hard at work loading their truck with every last plaster fragment when the employer himself stopped by. While held captive by the kidnappers Reacher impresses Holly with his calm, brains, physical fitness. The taut plot, set firmly in headline territory, lays bare the world of the rabid, worm-like militias crawling in the political underbelly of America. Reacher breaks free of his restraints, kills Bell, hides his body, and re-restrains himself before the others become suspicious.Lee Child is keeping the plot and credibility fast and easy and choosing the formula that works: hero gets in trouble, fights the bad guys and kicks ass. He’s got no idea what’s happening, but being more than a pretty face, he quickly figures out all kinds of things about her, her identity, and about the men. Next in were two agents working on cases that might be tied into the mess that Holly Johnson was dealing with.

Lee spends his spare time reading, listening to music, and watching the Yankees, Aston Villa, or Marseilles soccer. If it was a private weapon, a dresser like you would choose something dainty, like a snub twenty-two. For me the best bits of Die Trying would have to be the last quarter of the book, the first parts just didn’t grip me and it wasn’t until we had the drama actually taking place did it get good.The President, fearing political fallout from a bloodbath, refuses to authorize an attack, McGrath and his men go rogue, setting up camp near the community. I really enjoyed the first Jack Reacher novel, Killing Floor, but this second attempt was utter bilge.
