A disappointing 2 stars on this one. I am working my way through the Reacher series, having picked up 7 of them in paperback for nothing at my work library, devouring them, I then set out to fill in the blanks, so some of them I have read out of order. This one I purchased for my Kindle, however, it was very disappointing. It wasn't until about half way through the book that it started to pick up. I think all the heat and red paint and dust was just too much. It probably didn't help that we were in the middle of a heat wave with 35C degree temps. And the first half of the story was quite slow, very un-Reacher like. I was glad when I finished it. Usually Reacher leaves me wanting more, so that says something. On to the next one!
