Book 15.5 in the Jack Reacher series and I really don't understand the value of these slotted in short stories.
I love Jack, he's a solid five star read in the full length novels but these short stories have no point and neither do they add to the back story.
In this one we meet Jack as a fifteen year old. Jack didn't read fifteen to me, at times he felt super childish, and others an adult.
Did Lee Child actually write these?
