Maybe I like schlock then because I liked Lee Child's first
book. (have not read the 2nd yet -- though I have heard it
was less than the first. The 3rd is supposed to be
better.)
I found the character refreshing in his reluctant
macho response. And shall I say efficient? Certainly, the
description, after-the-fact, of the violence was hard to take
(for me) and perhaps intentionally shocking. however, it
believable, given the stakes. ($$$$)
here's a guy who doesn't want to get involved --
in anything, really. And is drawn into not only a life
threatening, and shall I say noir? situation; and
copes.
And if it is schlock, I found it entertaining
schlock.
