Publisher Description
An original short story about Jack Reacher, available exclusively as a separate ebook (also included in the new complete Reacher story collection No Middle Name).
Early in his military career, Jack Reacher is ordered undercover in Washington, to discover which one of four women, all staff officers on fast track careers, is leaking secrets.
The suggested method: get close to each in turn.
The obvious problem: the most receptive will be the guilty one, with an agenda of her own ... to kill the investigation - and the investigator.
‘Child has somehow forged that magical grail: a new and believable hero... when we thought all the heroes had been written.’ Observer

Great read
My first lee child book really enjoyed the story
Just OK - a bit sparse on Reacher!
While it's always nice reading Lee Childs, this short story contains a few big inconsistencies and few tidbits of info about Reacher - it could have been a story about any smart military guy.
Reacher is in his mid to late twenties so it predates the later books. He's in his prime physically here and while he's smart in this short story he has few of the street smarts or insights he'll develop later.
On the other hand it only cost me a few bucks and it was nice to read about my old pal again!
