I have to agree with the majority of reviews written here, and I didn't read them until I finished the book. I've read most of the Jack Reacher books and this has to be the worst. What I will say is, I did keep going and did finish. Ultimately, the plot is weak, I couldn't keep up with it, the characters were lifeless and a bit unproductive e.g what is the purpose of Sonia? The ending is simply a let down. I have to agree with somebody's comment that this book is as bad as the casting of Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher.
