"Jack in a Box", by Diane Capri




Hunt for Reacher # 1.1 (#2)

In this short story of 37 pages or so Agents Otto and Gaspar reveal a bit of themselves as they try to catch Jack Reacher.

My thoughts:

.Not much to this story. What is there is not important
.We learn little about the agents. Who cares about grand-ma or 5 kids?
.The story says nothing and brings nothing important to the hunt for Reacher
.Where is the plot? Babbling a lot about family matters
.Extremely slow moving.
.Boring 10 short chapter vignettes
.Poorly written: choppy sentences (resembling my above thoughts)
.Very forgettable: I had a hard time remembering what I had just read....

Conclusion:

Not worth reading forget buying (thank goodness if was a freebie)
