Book 85: "61 Hours" by Lee Child

     Jack Reacher is the central character in 14 of Lee Child's thriller novels.  He is a former U. S. Army M.P.  who has both a quick and agile mind and body.  Since leaving the military, Reacher has traveled across the U.S. with only a toothbrush and wallet (he buys new clothes every few days).
     Here is one reviewers description of the opening plot line for "61 Hours":  "When Jack Reacher hitches a ride on a senior citizen tour bus, he has no idea what's in store for him.  After the bus skids off the road during a snowstorm in Bolton, South Dakota, Reacher finds himself marooned in a town of turmoil.  An elderly woman who has witnessed a large drug deal go down agrees to testify, but the outmatched local police must keep her alive until the trial.  When the police ask for his help, Reacher moves in to protect the woman."
     Lee Child is a superb craftsman of suspense--you may want to check out earlier Jack Reacher stories after reading this one.
