Although I’m not ordinarily a fan of thrillers, ‘Persuader‘ by Lee Child has got me hooked.
Jack Reacher, the taciturn ex-MP whose adventures in Lee Child’s six previous solidly plotted, expertly paced thrillers have won a devoted fan base, returns in this explosive tale of an undercover operation set up by the FBI to rescue an agent investigating Zachary Beck, a reclusive tycoon believed to be a kingpin in the drug trade.
