Description

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
 
“High-powered, intricately wrought suspense.”—Janet Maslin, The New York Times
 
“Hold on tight. . . . This novel will give you whiplash as you rabidly turn pages. . . . May be [Lee Child’s] best.”—USA Today
 
New York City. Two in the morning. A subway car heading uptown. Jack Reacher, plus five other passengers. Four are okay. The fifth isn’t. And if you think Reacher isn’t going to get involved . . . then you don’t know Jack.
 
Susan Mark, the fifth passenger, had a big secret, and her plain little life was being watched in Washington, and California, and Afghanistan—by dozens of people with one thing in common: They’re all lying to Reacher. A little. A lot. Or just enough to get him killed. A race has begun through the streets of Manhattan, a maze crowded with violent, skilled soldiers on all sides of a shadow war. For Jack Reacher, a man who trusts no one and likes it that way, the finish line comes when you finally get face-to-face and look your worst enemy in the eye.
 
BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Lee Child's A Wanted Man.

“Propulsive . . . [Child is] an expert at ratcheting up tension.”—Los Angeles Times
 
“A top-notch thriller.”—Booklist (starred review)
 
“Edgy . . . thoroughly engrossing.”—The Miami Herald

Reviews

  • Worst So Far

    I’ve read all the Reacher books so far, and thy e all been able to retain my attention despite the author’s sometimes excessive descriptions. This book was just terrible. The plot was poor, very little character development, and tons of boring descriptions of New York. Literally, descriptions of Reacher walking from block to block for pages on end. So boring. Painfully boring. Skip this one.

    In this book, Reacher really takes care of business. Brutal and efficient.
  • Good but not great

    I think this story started off real slow and had little to no action until about halfway through. The end battle was one of the more ferocious you’ll read in any book and certainly gave the book the ending it deserved
