Cry Havoc and Gone Tomorrow

I recently finished Jack Carr's novel Cry Havoc, which takes place in 1968 in the era of the Tet Offensive.  The novel focuses on Tom Reece, the Navy SEAL father of James Reece from The Terminal List. I'm also currently reading Lee Child's Gone Tomorrow since that's the novel on which Season 4 of Amazon's "Reacher" is to be based. So far, so good. Not much action, but an interesting mystery as Reacher puts everything together with no help from a loyal crew. The Amazon show will doubtless add a lot of action, plot elements, and some of Reacher's former associates. I'll probably do a two-fer review of these books soon, so stay tuned.
