Finished Persuader by Lee Child. This is one of the many books in Child’s series about ex-military policeman and all-around tough guy Jack Reacher.

In this one, a chance encounter on a street leads Reacher to a remote Maine estate, where he goes undercover in hopes of catching a drug kingpin and helping some law enforcement agents find and rescue another missing agent who also went undercover in the kingpin’s organization. But there’s more going on at the estate than meets the eye, and Reacher is in danger every second even as he tries to get to the bottom of it all …

I like this series a lot, mainly because it kind of reminds me of The A-Team. Reacher is a one-man wrecking crew as he goes around the country helping people in trouble. This is another fine addition to the series, with some nice twists and turns and some pretty cool fight scenes. Thumbs up.

Up next: The Professional by Robert B. Parker
