'MacDonald had a huge influence on me . . . Reacher is like a fully detached version of Travis McGee' LEE CHILD Travis McGee isn't your typical knight in shining armour. He only works when his cash runs out, and his rule is simple: He'll help you find whatever was taken from you, as long as he can keep half.
Travis McGee receives an unexpected guest, Harry Broll, who is convinced that he's hiding his missing wife. The desperate man gets off a shot before Travis can wrestle his gun away. Worried that he's losing his touch, Travis decides to get Harry off his case and prove he's still in top form in one fell swoop.
Travis's search for the missing woman takes him to Grenada, where he's soon tangling with con artists and killers. No longer wallowing in self-pity, Travis has more pressing concerns - like saving his own skin.
