For the most part I really liked Jack Morgan, the protagonist of James Patterson’s new series, but I had trouble sustaining my belief that such a stand-up guy would struggle with wondering whether he did the right thing for so long. As a Marine, I think he would have believed in the decision handed down by his commanding officers. As a good friend of Rick Del Rio, who was there in Afghanistan with Jack, I think he would have believed his friend’s story as well. That subplot almost seemed like an annoyance, especially when it intersected the subplot with Jack’s twin brother, Tom.
