What books are you reading?
"The Emperor of Scent tells of the scientific maverick Luca Turin, a connoisseur and something of an aesthete who wrote a bestselling perfume guide and bandied about an outrageous new theory on the human sense of smell. Drawing on cutting-edge work in biology, chemistry, and physics, Turin used his obsession with perfume and his eerie gift for smell to turn the cloistered worlds of the smell business and science upside down, leading to a solution to the last great mystery of the senses: how the nose works."

Having exhausted the available Jack Reacher novels I have been going through the Mitch Rapp series.
Seems like a weird name for a hero. Perhaps it has to do with character ownership rights. I do not imagine very many character name collisions with that moniker. :)

I like those and have read all of them. Never thought it was a weird name, though. Rapp is a relatively known if not overly so last name.
