Chronicle In Favor Of Books Runner (Sam Dryden #1)
Sam Dryden, retired special forces, lives a quiet life in a small town on the coast of Southern California. While out on a run in the middle of the night, a young girl runs into him on the seaside boardwalk. Barefoot and terrified, she’s running from a group of heavily armed men with one clear goal—to kill the fleeing child. After Dryden helps her evade her pursuers, he learns that the eleven year old, for as long as she can remember, has been kept in a secret prison by forces within the government. But she doesn’t know much beyond her own name, Rachel. She only remembers the past two months of her life—and that she has a skill that makes her very dangerous to these men and the hidden men in charge.Dryden, who lost his wife and young daughter in an accident five years ago, agrees to help her try to unravel her own past and make sense of it, to protect her from the people who are moving heaven and earth to find them both. Although Dryden is only one man, he’s a man with the extraordinary skills and experience—as a Ranger, a Delta, and five years doing off-the-book black ops with an elite team. But, as he slowly begins to discover, the highly trained paramilitary forces on their heels is the only part of the danger they must face. Will Rachel’s own unremembered past be the most deadly of them all?

Runner was raved about by one of my Goodreads friends, so I picked it up from the library. This story is about a man who happens to be in the best place at the right time, and makes the decision to help a girl that changes his whole life. Sam Dryden has this irresistible compulsion to go running at night, in a certain area. He's been drifting after his personal loss, and believes this is due to his restlessness, and perhaps an existential crisis. He meets a girl who begs him to save her life2,5 starsRunner by Patrick Lee is the 1st in Sam Dryden Series and it's also the first book I've read by this author.An action packed thriller with a bit of paranormal thrown in.A lot happens in the first part of the story but then the plot becomes so implausible and beyond far-fetched....I "eye rolled" a couple of times.........all these gadgets and bad guys chasing around.........that's the reason why I didn't give it a full 3star rating!!I did like Sam Dryden, the main character but there
4.5 stars
Runner by Patrick Lee was a very good thriller. It starts out with retired special forces Sam Dryden out for a run. He runs into this young girl named Rachel who is running from these men with guns. So he decides to help her. The longer he runs with her the more he learns about her and the people that are chasing her. The deeper he gets into this the harder it is to keep them alive. Over all I enjoyed reading this book. This was the first book I have read by Patrick Lee. Will be reading the
Read my review here... http://badassbookreviews.com/runner-b...Or here.... Holy smokes, this book went from 0 to 60 in less than 2 pages and I loved it. Packed with non-stop action, this book had my heart rate going like I was the one running instead of the characters.Action, suspense, and mind control?Runner has a supernatural element that blended flawlessly into the storyline. I love paranormal and supernatural books so this was an added bonus. The supernatural element is so perfectly placed,
I've never really started any book without skimming summary first. But I guess there's always a first time for everything. Just after a disappointing read, I took a leap of faith and blindly (I mean literally, I didn't even see the name) started reading the first book my Kindle presented me. And what do you know?? It's just the type I like most, technological thriller with sheer suspense. There's action, suspense, mystery (nothing I couldn't solve though), technological bullshit and, last but
Another surefire winner from the new master of high-concept suspense thrillers Patrick Lee. I picked up this book to immerse myself in a quick-read action thriller for a few days, and Lee didn't disappoint. I guess that's an understatement, not only did Lee didn't disappoint, he crossed my expectations in leaps and bounds. The initial plot sounded simple enough : Sam Dryden was an ex-soldier and some ex-deep black if-I-tell-you-I-have-to-kill-you stuff who lost his wife and daughter in an
