Story
Detective Reed Mattox, just three months removed from the death of his partner, has turned invisibility into an art form. Switching to the K-9, taking over the graveyard shift, moving to a farmhouse miles outside of Columbus - his every move has become predicated on putting as much distance between himself and the outside world as possible. That distance is shattered, though, when bodies begin turning up in The Bottoms, the poverty-stricken section of town he is assigned to patrol.

Wish there was more character development. Needed more physical descriptions to help visualize the main characters.

I'm used to Dick Hill, but this announcer was quite good. He did an excellent job with different accents.

It’s amazing what bodily injury can do for a man. A fall from a racehorse left brilliant jockey Sid Halley dangerously depressed, with a wrecked hand and the need for a new career. It was a bullet wound that helped him find one.

Story
1992. All across the United States respectable, upstanding citizens are showing up dead. These deaths could be accidents, and they don’t appear to be connected—until a fatal fall from a high-floor window attracts some unexpected attention. That attention comes from the secretary of defense. All of a sudden he wants an interagency task force to investigate. And he wants Jack Reacher as the army’s representative. If Reacher gets a result, great. If not, he’s a convenient fall guy.

Not up to the usual standard. The story jumped around so much in the beginning I was having trouble figuring out who the characters were. The narrator needed to change his voice more for the different characters.

There are a lot of pregnancies in this novel! I found myself wondering if no one had heard of birth control! Other than that, it was pretty good.
