Publisher's Summary

Number one New York Times best seller

Jack Reacher comes to the aid of an elderly couple...and confronts his most dangerous opponents yet.

"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

Awesome

Classic Reacher. The best of the last few in my opinion. Simple formula, beat up bad guys and bed hot women. All while being the smartest guy in the room. Love it.

Jumped the shark

Well written but parts were completely unbelievable and were uncharacteristically overly violent. plot was great, but it just seems the effort wasn't there.

Did not want to stop listening.

Reacher kept it real and interesting.
Each part of the book had it's own story, real life stuff.

Kept you on your toes guessing and waiting.

A great no holds barred book. Have Scott Brick narrate can add to any book. He’s the best out there.

Blessings to Lee Child....don’t retire!!

I love it when evil gets its comeuppance in heaps. Finally our beloved Jack Reacher is equal to Vince Flynn’s “Mitch Rapp”in dishing out justice and pain....this time finally it’s of the DEADLY variety. I’m not fond of authors who let OUR heroes be subjected to pain...A lot of my fellow readers are in some sort of pain LOL...me with my shoulder tendinitis LOL. So thank you MR Child for the excellent particularly Reacher dialogue and this time deadly retribution.....blessings to my fellow readers for the New year.
