#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Don’t miss the hit streaming series Reacher! 
“High-powered, intricately wrought suspense.”—Janet Maslin, The New York Times
 
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.
 
“Propulsive . . . [Child is] an expert at ratcheting up tension.”—Los Angeles Times
“Hold on tight. . . . This novel will give you whiplash as you rabidly turn pages. . . . May be [Lee Child’s] best.”—USA Today

      The listener who begins listening to Child's latest Jack Reacher thriller tonight will likely be done tomorrow. It's one of Child's best, with an unprecedented and astounding opening scene, which narrator Dick Hill delivers flawlessly. Then the story slows down as the relentless Reacher tries to figure out what's going on. Here Dick Hill's coherent and captivating reading keeps listeners focused. Later the story explodes again as government agents, the cops, an important politician, a foreign beauty, an alleged former Russian political commissar, and a pack of paid thugs pursue Reacher, all bent on extracting vital information from him. Thanks to Hill's dependable characterizations and thoughtful delivery of the plot, the listener hangs on every word, waiting for the bloodbath that's sure to come. A.L.H.

      Starred review from March 2, 2009
      All good thriller writers know how to build suspense and keep the pages turning, but only better ones deliver tight plots as well, and only the best allow the reader to match wits with both the hero and the author. Bestseller Child does all of that in spades in his 13th Jack Reacher adventure (after Nothing to Lose
      ). Early one morning on a nearly empty Manhattan subway car, the former army MP notices a woman passenger he suspects is a suicide bomber. The deadly result of his confronting her puts him on a trail leading back to the Soviet war in Afghanistan in the 1980s and forward to the war on terrorism. Reacher finds a bit of help among the authorities demanding answers from him, like the NYPD and the FBI, as well as threats and intimidation. And then there are the real bad guys that the old pro must track down and eliminate. Child sets things up subtly and ingeniously, then lets Reacher use both strength and guile to find his way to the exciting climax.
