A killing spree in town is soon solved by the police, the suspect is obviously the killer. However the killer denies the killings and says to the police that they is to get Reacher for him. With no phone, contact details etc Reacher comes into town and helps out the accused, who is a military trained sniper called James Barr.
The killings involved precise shots from a parking lot and Barr has the type of skills to record such an accurate kill score. Reacher gets involved with a young defence lawyer who is working the case and the slam dunk case for the police soon starts to unravel.
Someone in the background is pulling the strings to frame Barr and Reacher is on the scent. A fascinating book and I am comfortable with the Reacher character and the tough guy ways that he uses to right the wrongs.
8/10 for me.
