Maybe this novel should be called never help a stranger. Jack Reacher helps a woman who is abducted as she comes out of a dry cleaners. He tags along with her and finds out that she is being kidnapped by a militia group who are trying to overthrown the US government. The woman, Holly Johnson's father is head of the Joint Chief of Staff (wasn't he in Frankie Goes to Hollywood? J).
They are transported across America to a remote camp in Montana. They then spend time escaping (and getting recaptured) and turning the tables on their kidnappers. It is an enjoyable read and you begin to like Reacher even more.
This novel is one of a series, but there is no necessity to read them all in order. However, I read them all in order and I am now waiting for the next one to appear (June 2011 at the time of writing).
My rating 8/10
