Story
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.

Story
Reacher goes where he wants, when he wants. That morning he was heading west, walking under the merciless desert sun — until he comes upon a curious scene. A Jeep has crashed into the only tree for miles around. A woman is slumped over the wheel. Dead? No, nothing is what it seems. The woman is Michaela Fenton, an army veteran turned FBI agent trying to find her twin brother, who might be mixed up with some dangerous people. Most of them would rather die than betray their terrifying leader.

He decides to find out. And find the woman. And return her ring. Why not?

Jack Reacher. Hero. Loner. Soldier. Soldier’s son. An elite military cop, he was one of the army’s brightest stars. But in every cop’s life there is a turning point. One case. One messy, tangled case that can shatter a career. Turn a lawman into a renegade. And make him question words like honor, valor, and duty. For Jack Reacher, this is that case.

In Gerrardsville, Colorado, two witnesses to the same tragedy give two different accounts. One guy sees a woman throw herself in front of a bus in what authorities will call a suicide. The other witness is Jack Reacher. And he sees what actually happened: A man in a gray hoodie and jeans, moving like a shadow, pushed the victim to her death - before swiftly grabbing the dead woman’s purse and strolling away.

It's 1996, and Reacher is still in the army. In the morning they give him a medal, and in the afternoon they send him back to school. That night he's off the grid. Out of sight, out of mind. Two other men are in the classroom - an FBI agent and a CIA analyst. Each is a first-rate operator, each is fresh off a big win, and each is wondering what the hell they are doing there. Then they find out: A jihadist sleeper cell in Hamburg, Germany, has received an unexpected visitor - a Saudi courier seeking safe haven while waiting to rendezvous with persons unknown.

"You can leave the army, but the army doesn’t leave you. Not always. Not completely," notes Jack Reacher - and sure enough, the retired military cop is soon pulled back into service. This time, for the State Department and the CIA. Someone has taken a shot at the president of France in the City of Light. The bullet was American. The distance between the gunman and the target was exceptional. How many snipers can shoot from three-quarters of a mile with total confidence? Very few, but John Kott - an American marksman gone bad - is one of them...

Former military cop Jack Reacher makes it all the way from snowbound South Dakota to his destination in northeastern Virginia, near Washington, D.C.: the headquarters of his old unit, the 110th MP. The old stone building is the closest thing to a home he ever had. Reacher is there to meet - in person - the new commanding officer, Major Susan Turner, so far just a warm, intriguing voice on the phone. But it isn’t Turner behind the CO’s desk. And Reacher is hit with two pieces of shocking news, one with serious criminal consequences, and one too personal to even think about.

Publisher's Summary
Number one New York Times best seller
The blockbuster Jack Reacher series that inspired two major motion pictures and the upcoming streaming series Reacher
Jack Reacher is back! The “utterly addictive” (The New York Times) series continues as acclaimed author Lee Child teams up with his brother, Andrew Child, fellow thriller writer extraordinaire.
“One of the many great things about Jack Reacher is that he’s larger than life while remaining relatable and believable. The Sentinel shows that two Childs are even better than one.” (James Patterson)
As always, Reacher has no particular place to go, and all the time in the world to get there. One morning, he ends up in a town near Pleasantville, Tennessee.
But there’s nothing pleasant about the place.
In broad daylight, Reacher spots a hapless soul walking into an ambush. “It was four against one” ...so Reacher intervenes, with his own trademark brand of conflict resolution.
The man he saves is Rusty Rutherford, an unassuming IT manager, recently fired after a cyberattack locked up the town’s data, records, information...and secrets. Rutherford wants to stay put, look innocent, and clear his name.
Reacher is intrigued. There’s more to the story. The bad guys who jumped Rutherford are part of something serious and deadly, involving a conspiracy, a cover-up, and murder - all centered on a mousy little guy in a coffee-stained shirt who has no idea what he’s up against.
Rule one: If you don’t know the trouble you’re in, keep Reacher by your side.
More from the same

Meh! Not the best Reacher Book
I have read and or listened to most of the Reacher series. When a new one emerges, I'm there, ready and willing to part with my money. This time I wish I hadn't bothered. I can't recall any of the previous Reacher novels having an overt political bent to them, but this one does. Antifa, Russians, voting machines and fraud. Murder and mayhem for sure, but the old tropes are back. This book has been done before. Spoiler Alert: Our friend, Jack, finds himself trapped in an underground bunker with no way out, Sound familiar? Well it is, but what's worse, the writing is not "Child" worthy. Much of the story is expository and very little evocation in the action or the descriptive text. Even Reacher's dialogue is a bit over the top. Sorry folks, this one is a good one to skip. Sadly Mr. Lee Child has abandoned Reacher and left him in the hands of one less qualified. As for the narrator, I like Scott Brick, but this time his voice got on my tits. It was hard to differentiate between the characters which had me wondering who was talking.

Long anticipated but not impressed
I'm a long time Jack Reacher fan and had this book in my wish list since it was announced. After listening the book I felt somewhat unsatisfied by both the story and performance. The Reacher character was close to but not the same calm and well balanced not rushing personality that I grew accustomed to. In this book Reacher is more violent than usual without any particular reason. The performance was unexpectedly dull considering it was by Scott Brick, one of my favorite performer across many books and characters. Overall, I felt the team hasn't given enough efforts to produce the story as well as they could.

Good book, however you may lose interest half way.
I'm a big lover of 'Jack Reacher' books, however I do understand the comments made in regards to this one. In the middle, it got boring quickly... Too much political conversation... Once that portion was complete, it picked up somewhat and got me over the finish line.
As far as Scott Brick...fantastic narrator. Can't always blame who reads. If the material isn't up to par, what can anyone do...right.

Another winner, love the series, love the character. I've never been disappointed with the story lines. I don't always have time to pick up a book and read, I'm a mom of 2 kids under 6 so multitasking is where I'm at. Please never change the narrator as far as I'm concerned Scott Brick is the voice of Jack Reacher.

Scott Brick isn’t the guy for this.
Too much over annunciating makes him sound very effeminate which doesn’t fit with Jack Reacher stories. Over-acting??? It’s like when they picked Tom Cruz to do the movie?? 6’-5”/250? Cmon. A few bad choices made here.

After 20+ Reacher stories, I say good-bye...
Scott Brick was great. Yes, I was used to hearing Dick Hil tell me about Reacher's adventures, but that was not the problem for me.
I'm willing to suspend my disbelief to a certain extent when enjoying a good story, but this book pushed way past those limits with the continuous coincidences to make the storyline progress, improbable action scenes, and the somewhat predictable backgrounds of the villains in a failed attempt to try to make the book contemporarily relevant with a far fetched story.
If you haven't read the other books in the franchise, enjoy them, but in my humble opinion, don't waste your money on this one.

Child & Reacher deserve better narration
Good grief, the man with one character voice is back. I find myself rewinding just to try and figure out who is talking! Same voice, same cadence, same melodramatic sing song performance for every character . Jack reacher is 6’5” & 250, can we get someone with a little grit??? Please please re-record the last few books!

Where's Dick Hill?
The narration is excellent... I would have liked to have Dick Hill do Jack Reacher. The subtle comical timing and inflection of Dick Hills voice is missing.
Performance worthy of 5 stars.. Just not Dick Hill..
Otherwise classic Jack Reacher. Well done!

I'm a veteran in long-term recovery
I find the Jack Reacher series personally inspiring. and I've been a loner for the last 10 years. PTSD and struggling with substance abuse which started during my service time encouraged isolation. And these books have been a sort of companion from time to time. with the character of Major Reacher being someone I can look up to, somebody who's integrity I can emulate.
His character has been developed as the type of person, the type of officer, that enlisted men and women also love. For those of you who have not been in the military, generally officers may get the obedience of the enlisted troops but not necessarily the respect.
The believability and the continuity of the storylines work for veterans. Unlike some authors who have developed agents and criminals that are otherworldly and unbelievable.
As I got to the end of The Sentinel it felt natural, and I anticipated, that this particular story should continue on. So when Jack decided to return to Nashville with the first ride offered, it was a delightful twist at the end of a satisfying read.
I'm grateful to Mr. Child and the entire publication team for producing something that inspires veterans to recover, to live instead of die, and to live lives of integrity!

Stale Reacher book.
Reacher can overcome anything except liberal propaganda. Of course,, it's the Russians! except communism is good. Marxism is celebrated. Antifa is treated as if we are too stupid to look past their name to see their actions. If Childs wanted to be up to date, I would have rather seen a story with neo cons and neo libs pushing propaganda thru their media allies to get their way, instead of this stale story. I guess Childs is trying to level up on lib points so he took this angle.
Brick was solid. Of course, still getting used to him as Reacher.

Here we go again...
Here we go again, just like Blue Moon, Lee Child wants to go down the cringy Russian interference rabbit hole, only this time, it's the Russians and NAWTSEES! Seriously, this stuff is such low hanging fruit, but I guess some people wish so much for it to exist in reality that the only way it can is in a fictional book for people to read. Lee Child is really loosing it, he needs to go back to the days when Reacher was Apolitical, sarcastic, banging hot single women he met, and solving actually interesting and suspensful mysteries. Also, nothing against Scott Brick, but the man just makes it so hard to follow what characters are talking when having conversation. Dick Hill is by far the best narrator, so please have him narrate in the future, and find more interesting content than MUH RUSSIA INTERFERENCE and NAWTSEES to write books about.

Reacher at his finest
Maybe Jim wanted to go out on a bang. Perhaps Andrew wanted to show off how well he would do telling the story. Or maybe it was Scott Brick's always-flawless narration. Whatever the reason, it was the perfect storm, and this was probably my favorite Jack Reacher story yet. I'm confident that Andrew will do great things going forward. Until the next Reacher novel comes out, I'm going to drive in to Andrew Grant's other works since he did so well here. Starting at the beginning with "Even." Best of luck, Lee Child in your retirement!

Meh
It's not that good but it is worth listening to if you're a Reacher fan
