Publisher Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The inspiration for season five of the hit streaming series Reacher!
ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Los Angeles Times, The Guardian, Suspense magazine
“Why is this town called Mother’s Rest?” That’s all Reacher wants to know. But no one will tell him. It’s a tiny place hidden in a thousand square miles of wheat fields, with a railroad stop, and sullen and watchful people, and a worried woman named Michelle Chang, who mistakes him for someone else: her missing partner in a private investigation she thinks must have started small and then turned lethal.
Reacher has no particular place to go, and all the time in the world to get there, and there’s something about Chang . . . so he teams up with her and starts to ask around. He thinks: How bad can this thing be? But before long he’s plunged into a desperate race through LA, Chicago, Phoenix, and San Francisco, and through the hidden parts of the internet, up against thugs and assassins every step of the way—right back to where he started, in Mother’s Rest, where he must confront the worst nightmare he could imagine.
Walking away would have been easier. But as always, Reacher’s rule is: If you want me to stop, you’re going to have to make me.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The 20th Jack Reacher novel ranks up there with the most entertaining, suspenseful titles in the series. In Make Me, the ex-military hero steps off a train in the town of Mother’s Rest, which lives up to the strangeness of its name. Teaming up with an ex-FBI agent, Reacher gets involved in a missing-person case that escalates into something much more sinister. Bestselling author Lee Child delivers a thriller that’s stacked with zingy one-liners, a compelling relationship, and jaw-dropping twists.
Customer Reviews
Enjoyed it
Not as "guns a blazing" as some of Reachers stories but enjoyed it as always.
Why so expensive?
I love the Jack Reacher series. I have bought every one, most in print rather than electronic. I must admit I am unwilling to pay $18.99 for an electronic version that I can only read on an Apple device. For that price, they should be mailing me a paperback. So sad.

Typical Reacher. I enjoyed the book.
