61 Hours is Lee Child’s
14 th book with Jack Reacher
as his protagonist, though it
is the first I have read.  The
author says his books are
planned so that you can read
them in any order.  He has
thirty-two million copies in
print.

Century Village
Expires 3/15/11 Century Village man who travels around the
country and always gets in-
volved in some sort of may-
hem.  This time he has been
stranded in Bolton, South
Dakota by a bus accident
and a blizzard.  He finds
himself in a situation in-
volving a motorcycle gang,
a riot at a nearby prison
and an upcoming drug trial. 
Jack also meets some of the
locals – from a witness in
the drug trial, Janet Salter,
to officers in the Sheriff’s
Department.   In addition,
there’s Plato – a drug lord.
His telephone contact with
Susan Turner, the CO of
the 110 th Special Unit that
he once commanded, pro-
vides us with a look at his
shadowy past and his human
side.  The author gives us
some insight into Reacher’s
psyche and background. 
The action moves seem-

Clubhouse
Library
by Dot Loewenstein

A lot of work goes into


keeping our clubhouse li-
brary neat, and the UCO Re-
porter has been kind enough
to continue printing our
monthly comments for the
benefit of new owners and
returning seasonal residents.
Lately we are getting an in-
flux of people using laptops.
Since the entire building has
WIFI, it is not necessary to
limit computer use to our li-
brary. There are larger tables
down the hall, near the com-
puter room, and electric out-
lets all along the walls. Some
people sit in the lobby and
use the laptop there instead
of making the trip upstairs.
