Book Review: Echo Burning by Lee Child (Jack Reacher 5)

The loner returns, Jack Reacher is back. The ex-military wanderer is back to put wrongs to rights in his usual inimitable way. With intelligence, violent action and a high injury list.

He is picked up by a Hispanic woman called Carmen when he is hitch hiking and she tells him of her life. We are not sure whether she is telling the truth or not? A lot of the book is a to and fro about whether she is truthful or not.

Redneck Texans are the villains who are Reacher's adversaries in this novel. However, in this novel there are only a few action scenes and the novel is quite slow paced. We learn little more about Reacher and this is not one of the best Reacher's for me.

Only a 6/10 for this novel.
