Publisher Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Jack Reacher will make three stops today. Not all of them were planned for. The “blockbuster” (Esquire) new Jack Reacher thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling authors Lee Child and Andrew Child, featuring “the best villain yet” (USA Today)!
Don’t miss the hit streaming series Reacher!
First—a Baltimore coffee shop. A seat in the corner, facing the door. Black coffee, two refills, no messing around. A minor interruption from two of the customers, but nothing he can’t deal with swiftly. As he leaves, a young guy brushes against him in the doorway. Instinctively Reacher checks the pocket holding his cash and passport. There’s no problem. Nothing is missing.
Second—a store to buy a coat. Nothing fancy. Something he can ditch when he heads to warmer climates. Large enough to fit a man the size of a bank vault. As he pulls out his cash, he finds something new in his pocket. A handwritten note. A desperate plea for help.
Third—wherever this bend in the road takes him. Impressed by the guy’s technique and intrigued by the message, Reacher makes it his mission to find out more . . .
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A stranger’s note sends Jack Reacher on a hazardous journey to unravel a web of blackmail and murder in this action-packed thriller. The scrap-paper call for help leads him to a man named Nathan Gilmour. When Jack decides to neutralize the threat to Nathan, it pits them against a man hell-bent on creating and exploiting a brutal war. Lee Child and his brother Andrew crank up the stakes for Reacher in this installment of the best-selling series. We especially enjoyed getting to know the human tank’s latest crew: steely Sabrina Patton and her understandably jittery co-worker Gilmour. The Child brothers have also come up with an excellently hissable adversary in ruthless security company bigwig Morgan Strickland. Get ready for another riveting round of vigilante justice, Reacher-style.
Customer Reviews
Not the Same Reacher
The writing style has changed and our beloved Reacher isn’t the same character. Yes, he’s still a big guy, does the right thing, but the way Lee Child would build the story around descriptions and details in missing. I’ve read every Reacher book and this one just doesn’t fit with the others.
Exit Strategy
Fairly disconnected and not all that interesting. Definitely a step down.
Not good
I won’t buy another Reacher.
