Title: Not sure I have the stomach for it...
Review: As other reviewers mentioned, I too was drawn in by the advertised foreword by Lee Child, whose books I enjoy. However, I second the use of the adjective "inexplicable" to describe it.While I applaud the idea of a strong, take-no-prisoners female who can compete in what is often portrayed as a macho world---and rooted for Charlie throughout, the amount of gore and protracted violence was definitely not my cup of chai. I cannot stomach people of either gender getting beaten to the proverbial pulp.As a character, Charlie never quite grabbed me...she seemed to be either falling apart or tearing things apart. I placed her in the "damaged goods" category, more fueled by anger than common sense.I cannot recommend the book to others but will check out the author's next free download or two to see if I find them more palatable.Regardless of my evaluation of the story line, I appreciated the fact that there were no typos :-)
