The Running Game by L.E. Fitzpatrick

Synopsis:
Her father called it the running game. Count the exits, calculate the routes. Always be ready to run because they'll always be coming for you. Whatever happens, they'll always be coming for you.

Rachel had let her guard down and they had found her. She could run now, leave the city and try her luck beyond the borders, but with no money and a dark secret to hide her chances of survival are slim.

But then she meets two brothers with a dangerous past and secrets of their own. Can they help her turn the game around?

This is the first installment of the Reacher series. Set in a grim and not too distant future, this urban thriller will keep you hooked until the last page.

My Rating
-3.5/5-


A free copy was received in exchange for an honest review.
I found this a pretty good book. I liked the style of it. It is like 3rd point of view but it follows different people around. So like you start out following Rachel for a chapter then the next chapter its one of the Smith brothers. It works out really well in this book because it's pretty short less then 200 pages plus it takes place in only a matter of a few days. Getting to know everyone's sides of the story helps you not only understand why everything is happening but it also makes the story feel less short. Also it's like a puzzle trying to connect everyone's individual stories to see the whole picture.
I liked the whole idea and what happened. All the events that lead together. I liked pretty much all the characters. Even the small ones seemed to make a huge difference in the book, and I liked that.
Honestly not much to say other then I enjoyed the book. I also hope to see another one and see if there is any where else this story can go.
