Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Don’t miss the hit streaming series Reacher!
“Jack Reacher is today’s James Bond, a thriller hero we can’t get enough of.”—Ken Follett
“This is a random universe,” Reacher says. “Once in a blue moon things turn out just right.”
This isn’t one of those times.
Reacher is on a Greyhound bus, minding his own business, with no particular place to go, and all the time in the world to get there. Then he steps off the bus to help an old man who is obviously just a victim waiting to happen. But you know what they say about good deeds. Now Reacher wants to make it right.
An elderly couple have made a few well-meaning mistakes, and now they owe big money to some very bad people. One brazen move leads to another, and suddenly Reacher finds himself a wanted man in the middle of a brutal turf war between rival Ukrainian and Albanian gangs.
Reacher has to stay one step ahead of the loan sharks, the thugs, and the assassins. He teams up with a fed-up waitress who knows a little more than she’s letting on, and sets out to take down the powerful and make the greedy pay. It’s a long shot. The odds are against him. But Reacher believes in a certain kind of justice . . . the kind that comes along once in a blue moon.
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY EVENING STANDARD
Reviews
Page-turning action from the star
5By CareerMovesTight plot. Reacher does what Reacher does best. No bad guys left.He’s Back!!
5By TNT 43094So happy Reacher is back! Look forward to the next one.No honor
2By BADAXE8MEBig Reacher fan. This book is a complete departure from the core attribute that makes Reacher interesting which is his code and character. In this book Reacher is flat out a murderer.Very very
5By AtomicCouggood.Like all The others, a truly great read!
5By DWFREIDELLYou will love this book, if you love the Reacher books.Mostly boring
2By Mark-stratNow Reacher enjoys killing, he has lost all morality, too bad.Awful
1By TrajannReacher kills maybe 35 people by the halfway point with no pushback. Limp plot, poor characterizations…barely readable. Don’t waste your money on this one.What was the point?
3By nicktianoThis was bad. Way too much killing. Was this a Jack Reacher Novel? I’m not sure what I read. This was a bit much. The waitress is able to handle a gun and shoot like the former Military guys in the story. That was odd.I guess on to the next one.Good
5By JD67PThis was what was expected from a Reacher story well written and descriptive enough to imagine seeing everything as it happened.Blue Moon
4By High FlyetA good story but moved a little slow.Have skills will use them.
5By Mission CapableReacher is the modern day Paladin, an unattached knight errant with his own sense of right and wrong and how to make the wrong right again. He is not employed by any other retainer than his own moral compass. That is the success of Lee Child’s knight. It is also the success of the saga of Jack Reacher. - Mission CapableSo disappointed
1By AstraPointI’ve read so many Jack Reacher stories, and I really enjoyed them. This one is, in my opinion, sloppy and ridiculous.Jack Reacher is the dude😂
5By NomoreniceniceI love getting lost in a Jack Reacher novel!Due For a Bad One
1By Eyerish21The Reacher series is usually reading that can’t be put down. This one, in my opinion, was a dud and hard to follow. Time to start the next one.Great
5By Ambiz5Great Read 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Reacher gone rogue
4By BearsFanTomInteresting plot. Well researched and typical terrific Child narrative. A little over the top in terms of Reacher’s invincibility and whomever sides with him. Nonetheless entertaining and satisfying. Always impressed how Child comes up with new ways Reacher makes things rightBlue Moon
5By brassfield0401This is a very good book. Reacher at his finest and a good supporting group. Quite brutal.Another Reacher Legendary Book
5By DLJMNReacher again displayed the type of hero we all would like to be had we possessed his skills and moral compass.O.K.
3By paka mThis is a different Reacher!
