Historia
1992. All across the United States respectable, upstanding citizens are showing up dead. These deaths could be accidents, and they don’t appear to be connected—until a fatal fall from a high-floor window attracts some unexpected attention. That attention comes from the secretary of defense. All of a sudden he wants an interagency task force to investigate. And he wants Jack Reacher as the army’s representative. If Reacher gets a result, great. If not, he’s a convenient fall guy.

Jack Reacher Delivers
Revisado: 11-11-23
Great effort by the father and son team, Lee and Andrew Child. I love reading the Reacher novels and with Lee Child passing on the baton to Andrew, I am sure I will be seeing new Reacher books for some time. The Secret showed Reacher show a big case and a small one. Lots of physical action too. Reacher should have at least one bar fight in every book and at least one fight against four or more. The Secret had both. My only disappointment was that I was wanting to see a fight between the two killer ladies and Reacher. Kind of funny the Sampson girls always won because men under estimated them, but they lost because they under estimated other woman. Can’t wait to read the next book hopefully next year.

Historia
In Conversations with Rabbi Small, the rabbi finds himself taking a well-deserved vacation at a Jewish retreat in the mountains, where he reads, plays cards, and furthers his studies, which have been languishing for too long. When the rabbi’s wife is called back to the city to deal with an illness in the family, the rabbi meets a curious young woman in the midst of a life-changing moment.

If you loved the Rabbi Series don’t forget this title
Revisado: 03-13-23
I read the original seven books in the late 70s. Loved the series. Later in the 80’s I listened to those same books on tape plus books 9 and 10. I purposely did read Conversations with Rabbi Small. I thought the book would be Rabbi Small mystery without the mystery of drama involving his church. Recently I started rereading those books again on audible. After rereading the first seven books. I decided to read Conversations. I was not disappointed. Yes there was discussions about the Jewish and how it compared to other faiths especially Christianity. I have taken college classes on both Judaism and Christianity. I found that Kellerman as Rabbi Small representation of Jewish and Christian thought fairly accurate keeping in mind that Small focus on Christianity is primarily the Roman Catholic Church and not Protestant or evangelical Christian groups. But this book was more than theological discussions, but there is a store there, and a problem and a mystery and Rabbi Small is able to set everything right. This book deserves its place in Rabbi Small canon as a good middle between the first seven books and the books that follow.

Historia
Twenty-nine-year-old Abraham Lincoln has spent his entire adult life running from his past - from the poverty of the dirt-floor log cabin where he was raised, from the dominion of his uneducated father, and from a failed early courtship. But now, Lincoln's past is racing back to haunt him. It is the summer of 1838, and Springfield is embroiled in a tumultuous, violent political season. All of Springfield's elite have gathered at a grand party to celebrate the Fourth of July. Spirits are high - until a prominent local politician is assassinated in the midst of fireworks.

Lincoln is front and center
Revisado: 10-04-21
My previous complaint was that there was more Speed to Lincoln, the third book fixes this short coming. Lincoln is front and center throughout the book. It is surprising that this book and politics in the late 1830s has many parallels to our troubled times.

More Lincoln Please
Revisado: 09-24-21
I love the first two books. My only complaint is Lincoln is not present in much of the story. More Lincoln please.

Historia
Renée Ballard is working the night beat again and returns to Hollywood Station in the early hours only to find a stranger rifling through old file cabinets. The intruder is retired detective Harry Bosch, working a cold case that has gotten under his skin. Ballard kicks him out but then checks into the case herself, and it brings a deep tug of empathy and anger. Bosch is investigating the death of 15-year-old Daisy Clayton, a runaway on the streets of Hollywood who was brutally murdered and her body left in a dumpster like so much trash. Now, Ballard joins forces with Bosch.

Great story

Bosch is great. Love when Connelly teams up Bosch with other great characters he created. Please have Bosch, Renee, and Haller team up soon.
