Don’t miss the hit streaming series Reacher!
On Christmas Eve, Jack Reacher stumbles into a no-name bar in the California desert, desperate to take refuge from an unexpected snowstorm. Reacher came to Barstow for a little R&R. Instead, he’s sequestered in a dark little roadhouse with a bartender, a bewildered elderly couple—and two members of Britain’s Royal Military Police. They tell Reacher they were escorting a VIP to a top-secret meeting at a U.S. military base when they became separated from their charge. That’s when the threat came in from a notorious assassin: the Christmas Scorpion. Now they need a miracle to save the day. Or maybe all they need is Jack Reacher.
Reviews
Short but Reacher good
4By hl80002Lee Child writes great stuff even in a short story with just enough twists for my entertainment.Good short Reacher Story!
5By DWFREIDELLI warm climate in southern US is where Reacher was headed, only to be surprised by a difficult situation, which he easily remedied.A Christmas Scorpion
1By gruffeewalkerDisappointing. This was a short short story. Not a novel, as expected. And over before it started. The Sample for a new Reacher book that was included was nearly longer.Christmas coal
1By Battery223Save your money. Don’t bother with this oneVery short read…
3By --virginiaVery short read. I was expecting more. It was like a little vignette rather than a book.Lousy

5By ckodomGood short story. Classic ReacherWhat a waste
1By jhobbs757For $2 I feel it should have taken longer than 5 minutes to read. No real story line , and it doesn’t portray the jack reacher that I’ve read so much of.Too short
2By JeffdadDon’t waste my time with this stuff. Don’t you guys make enough money from these books. This should have been free.This is not a book!
1By dympnajI should have read the reviews before giving my $2 away. All the reviews are correct! Stay away from this one.Jack Reacher A Christmas Scorpion
2By slickeilli72Okay but definitely not worth a full novel, fans of Reacher will enjoy but not much to this short story.Says it’s 320 pages but it’s really 60
1By Kcjones123This was a rip off at $1.99 when it says it’s going to be 330 pages but it’s only 64.Not up to standard
2By ptPatiI have read them all but this one is by far worse than them. Could have just skipped all but the lsat few chapters!The Christmas Scorpion
1By EtwiA waste of my money and time. Not a story...barely a story line...full of holes & unbelievable observations.Rubbish
1By RayTraderLove Jack Reacher....hate this story.Don’t buy
1By Dawn7677Love all the Reacher Books, but this one is not worth the 2 bucks. Should have been longer!
