Hello! I’m looking for a new series similar to Jack Reacher. I like the lone wolf, tough guy aspect, as well as the fact that like me, Jack Reacher loves himself a good cup of coffee. I know this is a weird request, but are there any series like Reacher, with a hero/heroine/main character that loves coffee like Reacher does? I also enjoy that Reacher is a drifter, and goes to small towns and solves mysteries, and helps people.
I looked up who reacher is inspired by or based on and Travis McGee is one of the characters as well as Spenser and Sherlock Holmes
You might as well go back to the beginning.
For actual literature try Dashiell Hammett. He was an authentic Pinkerton detective before turning to writing. His nameless detective, The Continental Op, appears in ‘Red Harvest’ and ‘The Dain Curse’ plus a number of short stories.
Pulp heroes who had monthly adventures include The Shadow and Doc Savage. Doc was a 7 foot tall polymath with a secret gold mine in South america.
