The Enemy

I just finished the next book in the Jack Reacher series by Lee Child, The Enemy. This was different from the rest of the books in the series, where Reacher is an ex-miltary policeman. This book is a throwbackback to New Year's Eve 1989, and continues in to 1990. Reacher is the Military Police Commanding Officer in Fort Bird, North Carolina. He has just been transferred there from Operation Just Cause in Panama, and is not sure why. On New Years Eve, he recieves a phone call about a dead General who died of a heart attack in a sleazy motel room a few miles away from the base. A few hours later, he recieves another call of a murdered Delta Force soldier in the woods around the base. The next day, there is another call that the commanding officer of Delta Force has been murdered in a town a few hundred miles away. Reacher is suspected by the Delta Force members of having involvement, and they will get their revenge if Reacher can not find the real murderer first.
