Book Review: Without Fail by Lee Child (Jack Reacher 6)


This novel was published in 2002 and is written by Englishman Lee Child about the American loner tough guy Reacher, it is his 6th outing. Reacher is an ex-US military cop who is meandering around America trying to keep outside the system and a tied down life

In this novel Reacher helps a woman to protect the Vice President of the United States. Reacher is not in a world he likes, the suits and diplomacy but the world needs his tough guy protection. The ruthless killer not only has the Vice President on his hit list but also puts Reacher on it too.

The novel, as usual with these books, has Reacher being violent and ruthless with it as well as some love interest too. We learn how Reacher tracks down the killer and puts wrongs to right.

A good novel for me and improving Lee Child work, 8/10.
