Publisher Description
** REACHER SEASON 4: OUT NOW ON PRIME VIDEO**
"This was the first Jack Reacher novel and with its lean, spare prose it has one of the most intriguing heroes of our times and displays a gift for explosive drama." (Daily Express)
Jack Reacher jumps off a bus and walks fourteen miles down a country road into Margrave, Georgia. An arbitrary decision he's about to regret.
Reacher is the only stranger in town on the day they have had their first homicide in thirty years. The cops arrest Reacher and the police chief turns eyewitness to place him at the scene. As nasty secrets leak out, and the body count mounts, one thing is for sure.
They picked the wrong guy to take the fall.
_________
Although the Jack Reacher novels can be read in any order, Killing Floor is the first book in the internationally popular series. It presents Reacher for the first time, as the tough ex-military cop of no fixed abode: a righter of wrongs, the perfect action hero.
The latest Reacher thriller, EXIT STRATEGY, is available now in paperback - the brand new adventure, CHAIN REACTION, is out in October 2026 and is available to pre-order now!

Customer Reviews
Great read
Excellent introduction to the Jack Reacher collection.
Killing Floor - The Legend Begins
If you're reading this review to determine whether or not you should buy this book you are wasting time. Also you'd better join the library if you can't afford the next fourteen because this stuff is literary crack cocaine and you will want your next fix pretty much straight away. By the way - read it before you watch any movie that has Cruise playing Reacher. It's the worst casting decision ever made and you don't want that scientologist weirdo midget screwing up your own image of Reacher. Once you've read a few you'll know what I mean. Welcome to the club!
The killing floor
This is a great book that I have enjoyed from beginning to end. A hard book to put down. The character of Reacher is like Jason Bourne, but has a more down to earth appeal. Lee Child keeps the reader interested from start to finish. The story is kept at a constant pace and the descriptions of atmosphere and emotions keep you enthralled. A great read, and I can't wait to start the next book in the Reacher series.
