(2003)Jack Reacher is trying to find the person who killed two of his Army team 10 years ago who also is the leader of a gun-runner gang. To do so he is part of a fake kidnapping of one of the ring-leaders' son and ?saves? him so that he can infiltrate the gang. He does so but finds the going difficult as no one truly trusts him. So he methodically eliminates the henchmen one by one until he confronts his prey after a wet & cold swim outside of the headquarters of the group. Very good as always, although this was probably one of the most violent of his books to date. Booklist Beginning with a stunning set-piece involving the apparent kidnapping of a college student, the novel offers the brooding Reacher, a former military policeman, the chance to settle a score with an old nemesis, renegade army intelligence officer Quinn, whom Reacher believed was dead until a chance encounter on a Boston street. Using his old sources to verify Quinn's identity, Reacher finds himself in the middle of an FBI investigation of shady tycoon Zachary Beck. The best thrillers run on high-octane narrative fuel, but they are not plot driven. To generate real thrills, an author must put real people behind the wheel, and Child does exactly that. Reacher may grow from type--the tough-guy loner, wounded and trying unsuccessfully to disengage--but he brings his own sinewy presence to the role. Bones crunch, wounds bleed, and hearts break in this galvanizing tale, but they never do so generically, and the mayhem, both physical and emotional, never feels gratuitous. Persuader the title of this book is also the name of a gun; a powerful gun. The book goes back and forth for Reacher remembering ten years ago and comparing it to today. Our hero, Jack Reacher, get himself into terrible situations, but is able to escape through his super powers. The persuader gun, plays an important part of the story. Four stars were given to this book. If one wants to find out how the gun is important as well as the persuasive personality, then one will have to read it. Persuader is the seventh book in the Jack Reacher series. Each book has new characters except for "Reacher". The plot worked it's way through 13 hours; could have been shorter. But, there were several twists and turns that worked well. until the end. I didn't care for the frequent flashbacks and the story did not need them. There was a better way to end it and the author did not use it. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

Jack Reacher - den ensamme hämnaren ... Aldrig förlåta. Aldrig glömma. Det är den före detta militärpolisen och vagabonden Jack Reachers enkla paroll. Och Francis Xavier Quinn var den mest skoningslöse man Reacher någonsin stött på. En man som begått de mest oförlåtliga handlingar. Så Reacher var glad över att Quinn var död - till den dag han ser honom livs levande på en gata i Boston. Aldrig be om ursäkt. Aldrig förklara. När Reacher blir vittne till en brutal kidnappning av en ung student i samma stad, ser han sin chans och bestämmer sig för att ta lagen i egna händer. Men den här gången begår han ett stort misstag - han skjuter ihjäl en polis. Har Reacher slutligen gått för långt? Det enda han vet är att nu är det personligt ...
