About this ebook
"Child's best for some time...with detective-story and romcom elements (even sly humour) on top of the psychological duels and set-piece violence." (Sunday Times)
Jack Reacher has no place to go, and all the time in the world to get there.
A remote railroad stop on the prairie with the curious name of Mother's Rest seems perfect for an aimless one-day stopover. He expects to find a lonely pioneer tombstone in a sea of nearly-ripe wheat.
Instead there is a woman waiting for a missing colleague, a cryptic note about two hundred deaths, and a small town full of silent, watchful people.
Reacher's one-day stopover turns into an open-ended quest leading to the most hidden reaches of the internet, and right into the nightmare heart of darkness.
_________
Although the Jack Reacher novels can be read in any order, Make Me is 20th in the series.
Be sure not to miss Reacher's newest adventure, no.29, In Too Deep! ***OUT NOW**

Who wrote this book? If it was Lee Childs then he must've been on something not quite legal. It's not that it's bad, it's just not like any of the other reacher novels. Far too many throw away light hearted but not funny comments and no depth of character to anyone. Maybe Childs has a teenage grandson he bribed into doing this for him, it certainly reads like that.

I usually can't wait for the next Reacher instalment but this one seemed a little laboured. It never quite settled in to the usual Lee Child rhythm. Sad to say it but maybe the Reacher series has been exhausted which really P's me off!!

Seems Lee isn' t too worried about a good read since he sold out to the midget Cruise. Poor story well suitable for the giant tough guy Tom. Don' t bother with this one !
