Book Review "Die Trying"

This is a good thumping read of a novel, i love lee child novels so here I add another one of my favourites.

The story follows Jack Reacher, the protagonist of the series, who gets accidentally caught up in the kidnapping of an FBI agent named Holly Johnson. While Reacher is helping Holly with her dry cleaning in Chicago, they are both abducted at gunpoint and taken across the country by a group of kidnappers. Reacher soon learns that Holly is the daughter of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the goddaughter of the President. The kidnappers, who are part of a radical militia group, plan to use Holly as leverage to force her father to give in to their demands for secession from the United States. As Reacher and Holly are transported to the militia's remote mountain compound, Reacher tries to find opportunities to escape and get help, while also protecting Holly. At one point, he is forced to kill one of the kidnappers who tries to assault Holly. Once at the compound, Reacher is put on trial by the militia's leader, Beau Borken, for the murder of the kidnapper. Holly threatens to kill herself if Reacher is executed, forcing Borken to spare Reacher's life. Instead, Reacher is sentenced to five years of hard labor. Meanwhile, the FBI is searching for Holly and Reacher, with only a few trusted agents involved in the case. They eventually track the militia's location, but the President refuses to authorize an attack due to political concerns. Reacher discovers the militia's plan to launch missiles at major U.S. cities, and he works with one of the rogue FBI agents to try and stop them. The novel culminates in a dramatic confrontation at the militia's compound as Reacher and the FBI agent attempt to rescue Holly and prevent the attack.
