Like you say, he generally has great beginnings. The start of _Persuader_ is, I think, one of the best thriller openings ever.

And this one has an early moment where you've gotta be thinking "Oh, no, poor fool...you really DON'T want to do that to Reacher." But the poor fool does anyway...

Anyway, no spoilers yet on this one, but I enjoyed it more than some, less than others. But Jack is always fun to spend a few hours with.
