High Heat

Easily the worst Reacher in the series, this novella puts a 16/17 year old Reacher in Manhattan, behaving EXACTLY as if he were the 35 year old Reacher we all know and love as the cape-less Superman. He is more knowledgeable, level-headed, mature and street savvy than any action hero you've read about, but he's a teenager looking for girls in NYC while enroute to visit his big brother. Utterly lacking credibility, it's best redeeming feature is its brevity.
