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**

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!!

Sometimes I like the detail Lee Child goes into especially when it advances the plot, but in this case I felt it was filled with too much irrelevant detail that I ended up skipping. You take out slot of this and the book would be a lot shorter

Not to the usual standard; I do hope that this isn't a sign of things to come. While we always know Reacher will win getting there is always a good ride, this was a journey that was slow predictable and not enjoyable.
