'Best. Reacher. Ever.' KARIN SLAUGHTER
It's just a voice plucked from the air: 'The American wants a hundred million dollars'.
For what? Who from? It's 1996, and the Soviets are long gone. But now there's a new enemy. In an apartment in Hamburg, a group of smartly-dressed young Saudis are planning something big.
In the morning they gave Reacher a medal, and in the afternoon they sent him back to school.
Jack Reacher is fresh off a secret mission. The Army pats him on the back and sends him to a school with only three students: Reacher, an FBI agent, and a CIA analyst. Their assignment?
To find that American. And what he's selling. And to whom.

Although the Jack Reacher novels can be read in any order, Night School is 21st in the series.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
As brusquely effective as ever, Lee Child takes his signature antihero back to 1996 for the 21st Jack Reacher novel. In this prequel, Reacher’s in his mid-30s; he's a stony, decorated military police officer in the U.S. army who’s dispatched into a pre-9/11 hive of global terrorism. Child lays the groundwork with his usual convincing details and brandishes some of the most cynical banter in the business. We especially loved discovering the roots of Reacher’s longstanding issues with authority.
Customer Reviews
Good enough book
Just finished this which I read over 4 nights. A good story but lacking I'm afraid the Reacher we know and love. Not enough one liners or Reacher classic punch ups. Also thought his powers of deduction were just too good to be true at times, and yes I know it's a work of fiction!!!!
However it kept me going, Reacher fans will like it but I don't think will go down as a top 5.

Good
Genuinely gripping
I really enjoyed reading this book. I have read a number of Lee Child’s books now and although they are rather one dimensional in their make-up, they keep you guessing and genuinely intrigued. I enjoyed the characters, their encounters and relationships. A good read.
