Echo Burning

Echo Burning is the fifth of the Jack Reacher novels by Lee Child. This book finds Reacher back on the road, hitchhiking down in Texas. He is picked up along the road by the alluring and somewhat mysterious Carmen Greer, a mother who tells Reacher a tale of domestic abuse. Along the way, Reacher encounters her abusive husband and his relatives, a small town filled with secrets and scandals, and a plan larger than anyone can imagine.

This book, like others in the series, tells several different stories that eventually weave together into an intriguing plot. Some Reacher novels rely on his investigative skills, while some rely on his brute strength and iron will. This novel uses both for the resolution.

Overall, it was an intriguing tale and an enjoyable read.
