- Is this one of the better Jack Reacher novels?
- Most readers put it in the middle of the series. It is well liked for its premise and pacing but ranked below early books like Killing Floor.

- Is it a good gift for a thriller fan?
- Yes, especially for someone who already follows Reacher. It is a cheap paperback and needs no prior reading.
