Opening paragraphs..............

Jack Reacher saw the guy step in through the door.  Actually, there was no door.  The guy just stepped in through the part of the front wall that wasn't there.  The bar opened straight out onto the sidewalk.  There were tables and chair out there under a dried-up old vine that gave some kind of nominal shade.  It was an inside-outside room, passing through a wall that wasn't there.  Reacher guessed there must be some kind of iron grille they could padlock across the opening when the bar closed.  If it closed.  Certainly Reacher had never seen it closed, and he was keeping some pretty radical hours.
