Amazon.com Review:
When Jack Reacher suddenly decides to ask a Greyhound bus driver to let him off near the town of Margrave, Georgia, he thinks it's because his brother once mentioned that the famed blues guitarist Blind Blake died there. But it doesn't take long for the footloose ex-military policeman to discover that there are plenty of strange--and very dangerous--things going on behind Margrave's manicured lawns and clean streets that demand his attention. This first thriller by a former television writer features some of the best-written scenes of action in recent memory, a crash course in currency and counterfeiting, and a hero who is just begging to be called on for an encore.
Product Description:
Ex-MP Jack Reacher goes into action to find his brother's killers, after a series of brutal crimes terrorizes tiny Margrave, Georgia, only to uncover the dark and deadly conspiracy concealed behind the town's peaceful facade. A first novel. 50,000 first printing. $50,000 ad/promo. BOMC Feat Alt.

- More personal info on Reacher
Even though I grumble when action movies or 'tough shows' like Law & Order lapse into what I consider to be soap opera (what artistes call 'character development'), I must confess that I LOVED learning more about Reacher's brother. He's a less huge, more thoughtful version of Reacher, a well dressed treasury agent. I don't think I'm giving away the plot to tell you that the murder victim early in the book is Reacher's brother.
Maybe Lee Child will write another book that's a retrospective ... Read More
Rating: - Show me the money.
Eno's was local, very local. In a small southern town like Margrave, Georgia, everyone knows eachother. It was law. Southern hospitality welcomed strangers, wanderers, riffraff, ramblers. So when Jack Reacher saw the local PD come at the diner like hell on wheels, well, they were there for him. Had to be. Locals, they'd get a quiet reprimand, and eased out slowly, no fuss, no mess.
And so it begins.
Jack Reacher, late thirties, tall, lean, buzzed cut that said military every ... Read More
Rating:
- the best one of the Reacher series
As far as thrillers go this was very good. The characters were deep and enthralling, keeping your interest all the way through. There was enough suspense to keep you turning the pages, and plenty of action. If you enjoy Lee Child`s Jack Reacher books then this will please you. I`m a series fan and enjoy Child and Michael Connelly books immensely, if you like that kind of thriller read the `Soft Target` books by Conrad Jones. They are unputdownable!! Back to the review, ten out of ten.

- What A Drag! A Disappointing Drag!
I had heard such good things about this novel. Someone even said it was the best in the series.
If this had been my introduction to the Jack Reacher series, I would have never picked up another.
Thank goodness I started with "Persuader" and followed it up with "Without Fail" and then "One Shot" and "The Hard Way" and "Die Trying" and "The Enemy." All easily worth a solid 5 stars. ("The Enemy" is definitely one of my top two Reacher stories. I wish Child would do more about ... Read More
Rating:
- The First Not As Good As The Last
I first read the last 3 Reacher novels ("One Shot", "The Hard Way" and "Bad Luck and Trouble") which I thoroughly enjoyed. Then I tried "Killing Floor", the first of the Reacher novels and was a little disappointed. I assume it was because the character was just being developed. The plot was very choppy. I felt there were a lot of words thrown in to fill the pages but did not add to the story.
I am very happy I read some of his latter works first, otherwise I might not have gone any further ... Read More
