Book info

• Title One Shot
• Author Lee Child
• Year 2005
• Genre Thriller

Six shots. Five dead. A heartland city thrown into terror. But within hours the cops have it solved. A slam-dunk case. Apart from one thing. The accused gunman refuses to talk except for a single phrase: Get Jack Reacher for me. Reacher lives off the grid. He's not looking for trouble. But sometimes trouble looks for him. What could connect the noble Reacher to this psychopathic killer?

Thoughts

Another Reacher book, and this time we are back to the present day (albeit a while ago as I’m so far behind on this series!), and Reacher gets drawn into another investigation. I liked that that slant on this one is that he doesn’t want to find out what really happened as he fully believes the murderer did what he did. But as his mind continues to tick on, he can’t help finding and pulling at those loose threads, and so we end up in a huge shootout, as you might come to expect. A great, standard, classic Reacher thriller.

Rating: 4 / 5
