For a short story it's good. Typical Jack Reacher, only he's in his teens here. It's an equally good chronology of NYC in 1977, along with the famous blackout.Two things stayed with me:The timeline doesn't add up for the Reacher fan. In this short, he's 16 in 1977. Not in synch with the full length novels. For 16, I also found him a bit too savvy. At 16, you simply don't think quickly on the fly the way he does
