About this listen

Tom Keeler finds himself in the town of Promise, Indiana. He just needs to drop off a package, then he can get back to the Florida sunshine.

But nothing’s ever that simple. The package gets stolen; things get complicated.

Linda Cartwright’s a happily married woman, and then someone tried to kill her on her own front lawn.

Why would they do that? Good question.

Keeler’s interested, but Cartwright won’t talk about it. When Cartwright’s attacked a second time, Keeler begins to suspect that she’s in over her head. She’s a tough lady, but even tough nuts crack.

And it’s not only Cartwright. Bad things are happening to regular folk, all over the town of Promise.

Behind every bad deed are bad people.

And when bad people get murderous, Keeler takes it to the next level.

Good Lee Child imitation and great idea to use the same narrator. The only annoyance is that the author really goes overboard on the "I said nothing" routine.

Good Lee Child imitation

I thoroughly enjoyed the book but was bemused at how incredibly similar it was to Reacher novels, down to “ that’s for damn sure “.
Surprised Lee Child hasn’t taken out an action for plagiarism .

Was this actually written by Lee Child?

With the Jack Reacher books inevitably running out of steam - and quality - I was pleased to find this series. Similar character but enough differences to breathe new life into the ex-military hardass drifter genre.

Meet the new Jack Reacher

Great story. Great narration. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Ray Porter delivers again. Worth a listen. Will be back for more.

Another great novel.

Anything narrated by Jeff Harding is going to be good - that guy could read the telephone book and make a great story out of it. But on this occasion he had a great book to work with. I found Jack Lively by accident and because Jeff was the narrator decided to give it a try and glad I did. Tom Keeley is fab new character with elements of Jack reacher but with a personality all his own. Lively pulls you into the story bit by bit, building the excitement and the storyline, starts as one thing and evolves into a whole different thing. I listened well into the night as I just couldn’t turn it off. Great listen and I would think a great read also.

the usual brilliance from the Childs family and Jeff Harding - now set up for another 20 plus books - is Jack Reacher about to be killed in next book

Aka Jack Reacher

So far I have enjoyed this series but a change of narrator is coming up and that could I have found in the past make a great deal of difference to the enjoyment

Story

So if you've read or listened to any Reacher novel you'll find this familiar. Keeler is a slightly more personable character though. Talks a little more, shows a little more emotion, uses slightly more imaginative wordplay, possibly more action but Keeler definitely enjoys confrontation more.

Others have complained that this series is just like Lee Child's Reacher. True, it's very similar, but honestly...what's wrong with that? I say nothing. Give me more!

Like Reacher but probably better

Good story I still can’t break with the Reacherisms but I’ll take it. Lee Child should’ve hired Jack Lively & not his son

Best so far
