A Wanted Man by Lee Child

A Wanted Man by Lee Child, 416 pages

This is book 17 in the Jack Reacher series and it feels like Child has run out of reasons to keep Reacher on the road dropping in and out of other people's drama.  Reacher is of course hitchhiking his way across the country and the he gets picked up by the wrong people which involves him in a murder investigation with international ties.  The action scenes are great but it takes a while for the plot to get rolling.  I stuck with the book out of loyalty to the series and felt rewarded by the action filled ending.  I am still not happy that Tom Cruise is playing Reacher in the upcoming movie.  I guess if you buy the movie rights you can cast yourself in anything.
