While I'm waiting for the next Jack Reacher novel, I'm going to be working through this author's backlist of novels featuring Joe Pike, a "former" mercenary and current private detective. Pike is an interesting hero - a lethal enemy but a man with a strong sense of morality and honor. In this novel, he ends up in middle of a Serbian power struggle after his former colleague is gunned down with his family. Pike pulls the competing gangs towards himself to create an entertaining double-cross and a few action-packed pages at the conclusion. This is a great summer read!
