Top positive review

Looking for Reacher keeps getting messy

May 6, 2019

Diane Capri continues to keep Reacher just out reach of our two FBI agents. The relationship they have with their boss is deliciously strange and as it seems to go in one direction then if changes. Other people who met Reacher do not give our FBI hero's the satisfaction of their misguided belief that he is a bad person. But they keep getting hints and the adventure continues. I am looking forward to the next hunt for Jack Reacher series book. Thank you Diane Capri.

Very disappointing

April 4, 2014

It was way too wordy, filled with unimportant details and frustrating ideas and conclusions that never materialized , very disappointing that "Reacher" never showed up in the book , I won't read another in the series

Does Amazon give refunds? This book is TERRIBLE!!! Did NOT finish, felt like i'd wasted hours of my time.

TERRIBLE!!! Did NOT finish; LOVE Lee Child series, nice to read re characters he created in various Jack Reacher novels, BUT this woman can't write! plot drags on, illogical to the EXTREME (yes, many books require some 'suspension of disbelief', this one requires you to be gullible enough to fall for Nigerian internet scams every 10 pages).

Started skimming early on, just got worse and worse.

Amazon give refunds?

Not close to Lee Childs

Putting Jack Reacher's name in this novel is merely bait and switch. Neither the characher nor Lee Childs' energized prose are to be found in this knock-off. Don't wast your time.

Hated it.

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

How many times does the reader need to be told that there's zero privacy and anything you say or do can be surveilled? How many times does the reader need to be told that poor Gaspar limps? How many times does the reader need to be told that Otto loves coffee? Apparently we need to be told that in every. single. chapter.

I've got other problems with this book, buy I'm so annoyed I've decided to stick with the petty complaints.

A total disappointment!

I have read every Lee Child book and many of his short stories. I am an avid fan of Lee Child and his Jack Reacher character, that is the reason I wanted to try this book. What a disappointment. I almost felt dirty reading a story that was almost comical it was so bad but it's only reason for being was to ride on Lee Chld's popularity. Diane Capri should be ashamed. If she can't create a character people are interested in, and there are certainly none in this book, then she should find another endeavor.

There's just no Purpose to this

It appears the writer wants to capitalize on the success of the Jack Reacher series. Well, she got me to buy two of her books, but I couldn't even finish the second one. There's just no point in the book... there's no real conclusion, which opens the door for the next book to be written (and bought).

The others were much shorter and like a novella

August 3, 2016

I have read the previous attempts by this author in her attempt to find Jack Reacher. The others were much shorter and like a novella. This was a full length novel and Capri should have stayed with the former format. Here two main characters are led on a wild goose chase from DC to NY to Chicago to Mexico to Texas without much direction from her FBI home office. The characters are one dimensional, the plot is boring and some of the action that take place are unthinkable, especially the sneak attack on the cartel hideout in Mexico. Ms Capri paints the FBI out to be a bunch of idiots. I constantly had the feeling that these two agents are never given any information they need to accomplish a task. As a result, that seems to be the inference drawn as to why they cannot capture Reacher. Of course, as anyone knows who has read the Reacher series, no one finds Reacher, He finds you. This book will be my last. The series she is trying to weave is pointless.

Disappointed.

Did read and enjoyed the other books in this series, but very disappointed with this one. I'm Otto consistently complains about needing coffee, sleep and checking time on her Seiko watch. Does she gets money advertising the brand? What was the purpose of this book? Ending even didn't make sense.

This is NOT a Reacher novel

I guess I had high expectations that the novel would have some of the mystique that Reacher novels have but reading this was very boring for me.

I really dislike her attitude for Jack Reacher

I really dislike her attitude for Jack Reacher. Lee Child's are so much better. Don't know why I buy her books except to see how she will slam him next. She can certainly make her characters boring and in this instance she makes the FBI look like a bunch of idiots.
