Book Reviews of Running Blind
Book Review: Why Not Rate the Book; Not the Publisher?
Summary: 5 Stars
I believe on average the book should show more stars than it does. It's been published in the UK & Canada under "The Visitor." Some are rating on the premise it's the same book under a different title. It is true & it happens more than one thinks. But that's not a true indicator of this Lee Child book.
Now for the book. It's a solid Jack Reacher thriller. Fast paced & a page turner. He's a biased FBI's suspect in the murder of former Army women he knew when he was an Army MP. He now sets out to find the real serial killer of these pretty bizarre murders. He has an ally in a rogue female FBI agent. Together they set about the task of proving who the real killer is.
The sexual tension between the two adds a nice touch. The small twist at the end works as well. It's well written & worth your time
Book Review: Visitor in a new cover!!
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this with the two `Soft Target` novels by Conrad Jones (electric thrillers!) only to find that the storyline seemed way to familiar to be a Reacher book that I hadnt already read...low and behold it is the same as Visitor but renamed and rebound.....not very fair really on Lee Child fans...there is no mention on the cover of either book that they are the same...which is naughty to say the least.Good job my two other purchases were brilliant!!Book Review: Lee Child-Running Blind
Summary: 4 Stars
Child uses the same character but each book is a different story. Although there are occasional references to previous story lines, the setting and direction are completely new.
