Publisher's summary

Across the country women are being murdered by a killer who leaves no evidence, no fatal wounds, no signs of struggle, and no clues to a motive. They are, truly, perfect crimes. In fact, the only thing that links the victims is the man they all knew: Jack Reacher.

Critic reviews

“Reacher is one of the more interesting suspense heroes to come along in a while.” (San Antonio Express News)

“Jack Reacher, the wandering folk hero of Child’s superb line of thrillers faces a baffling puzzle in his latest adventure…a brain-teasing puzzle that gets put together piece by fascinating piece...and a central character with Robin Hood-like integrity and an engagingly eccentric approach to life.” (Publishers Weekly)

“Deeply satisfying...plan to stay up long past bedtime and do some serious hyperventilating toward the end.” (Kirkus Reviews)

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

Challenging Performance

The narrator was very challenging for me, will not purchase another book with same. Difficult for me to engage.

Pretty Good Story

What didn’t you like about Jonathan McClain’s performance?

He is no Dick Hill. I found it hard to listen to him play Reacher because I am so used to Dick Hill. He did a good job with all of the characters, just not what I am used to.

An excellent continuation of the series.

Of course Reacher succeeds again but not without a few extra twists and turns this time around. I have enjoyed the series so far and find the surprises increase with each book. Mr. Reacher provides us with a nice escape from reality for a bit. Recommended reading for any Reacher fan.
