The hits keep coming. Tight writing and an interesting premise and plot line are keeping me going. Rock Wahlberg is a fine character. The author writes like Lee Child.

A new team of hitmen is hired to go after Rock Wahlman. I’d like to think that it is unrealistic to find so many people in such a short time willing to murder someone for hire, but unfortunately, it is probably not. In either event, the result is the best novella in the series so far as civilian casualties mount and Rock has to fight not just to keep himself and his girlfriend alive, but her family as well. The ending is the best yet—both unexpected and totally satisfying.

not a bad read in general....goes quickly if not predictably. I wish the author or his proofreaders would tighten up.....two books in a row where they have referred to a marquee as a marquis......one is minor royalty, the other is a sign....just sayin

You can't get from Monteagle to Nashville in an hour. Sorry to break it to you.
Here's another complaint from me about dynamics of location and sourcing.
This is another novella. Not a novel. Definitely not a book.
I feel like this was an exact duplicate of #3 but in a different town. I'm going to read the entire series, because, undoubtedly, I'll miss something magical.
Also, why did he not love Allyson after two days but Kacy after one day? Because Kacy slept with him? What's that BS about.
Also, now that there's no Mr. Tyler and we've inherited a new guy (now minus that guy) why are we calling these alter villains (the ones that come in krewes of three) by "red shirt" "grey vest" "white hat"? I feel like they should have names like Shnoz #1, Eyebrow Guy, etc.
Stretching? Probably.
Also, what the hell happened with the boat?

What can I say that I haven't said already with the first three books in this series? Yet again, another very quick read. An excellent series for anyone who is behind in their yearly reading challenge. The story continues, our intrepid hero continues to dodge professional hit-men and burly local yokels who seem gravitated to him and hell-bent on becoming physical. The body count rises as he tries to protect his new love interest and her family from the super-secret government agency out to kill him and everyone associated with him. Onward to the next book, where I'm sure there will be more of the same.

“Kill Shot”, fourth in the 'Jack Reacher Experiment', marks the end of the line for me.
Rock Wahlman is on the run from overwhelming odds but insists on putting both himself and Kasey in danger at every possible opportunity.
He should die several times but doesn't and, at the end, a locked room murder is so completely implausible that I laughed incredulously.
The series as a whole wasn't great but this particular episode is wojus (Dublin, Ireland, slang for something of low quality).
1 Star.

Jack Reacher Experiment # 4
Rock Walman is a Jack Reacher clone, part of a US Army experiment using cells from 100 years ago (Jack Reacher's cells)
The other clone has been killed by someone in the Army trying to erase all records and evidence of the experiment.
This is set in the future, not quite dystopian, but definitely a throwback (no cell phones, teleportation has been banned)

Kill. Shot. Jude Hardin
Rock Wahlman's existence is one of constant surveillance, one misstep, one judgement or error could be fatal. The clock is ticking for Kasey and him. Now her daughter and her parents life could be at stake. This is an extremely fast paced read!! Enjoyed immensely!!

Thoughts
The book maintains your interest throughout. You must keep in mind it is fictional and disregard small parts of it. It is as its intended to be and based on the Reacher series.

Another Reacher Adventure
Another installment in the extended Reacher Storyline. Direction and misdirection adds spice t to every mystery. This story fits the Jude Hardin formula with action,violence,and suspension.

Good as always, what else is there to say, so I am now just making up the numbers to keep someone happy.

Quick read, good action, and more of the conspiracy revealed. I would enjoy this more if it was longer.

$2.99 for an 89 page book? A loose use of the word "book". Someone thinks too highly of them self.

Rock's luck continues to hold. Will he ever be able to stop running?

Another quick read. Looking forward to finishing the series! On to Book 5 (just waiting for the Library).

'Kill Shot' was a quick read but it had an impact. Full of action, thrilling scenarios and great characters. I look forward to reading more.

Although short, I found this to the best Jack Reacher Experiment story that I've read so far. I look forward to Rock Wahlman's next adventure.

Good read, interesting reading about a clone that has teacher's violent side an just as cunning as the real guy.
