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.

There’s deadly trouble in the corn country of Nebraska...and Jack Reacher walks right into it. First he falls foul of the Duncans, a local clan that has terrified an entire county into submission. But it’s the unsolved case of a missing child, already decades old, that Reacher can’t let go.

The Duncans want Reacher gone - and it’s not just past secrets they’re trying to hide. They’re awaiting a secret shipment that’s already late - and they have the kind of customers no one can afford to annoy. For as dangerous as the Duncans are, they’re just the bottom of a criminal food chain stretching halfway around the world.

For Reacher, it would have made much more sense to keep on going, to put some distance between himself and the hard-core trouble that’s bearing down on him. For Reacher, that was also impossible.

Take another thrill ride with Jack Reacher.

Larry Lee Vaughn is driving me crazy with abstract

I almost didn't purchase this story because I already knew what happens, and why, but gave it a try as Lee Child is a great story teller. Four of the his Reacher novels I've read twice.
As of two years ago I had read every Jack Reacher novel written to that time.
This is like listening to another story altogether with common elements to the book. I had a great listening experience.
Do yourself a favor, buy it, you'll be buying all the Jack Reacher the hitchhiker stories afterwards; you have my word on it.

Dick Hill is an excellent writer. His stories are action packed and Jack Reacher is a hero. Right always is right, no grey areas. Love his work

Worth Dying For

Outstanding story line, love the vandetta. The geographics of the area should have had more research, no town in Nebraska or the midwest is 60 miles from a hospital. Maybe 40 miles at the most.

Jack Reacher is becoming a favorite of mine.

This book kept me eager to listen on.. Great ending I didn't see coming. Think it would make for a good movie too.

Great book & a great narrator!

An excellent story by Lee Child that vividly came to life thanks to narrator Dick Hill, he has the ability to subtlety change his voice for each character in a way that really brings the story to life! Highly recommend!

Detour on the way to Virginia

While I was a little disappointed that Reacher didn't get to Virginia in this book, it was a good one. As always Dick Hill did a great job of bringing the story to life. Plenty of action, and Reachers typical manner of taking care of the bad guys. Mr. Child has a way of making me always root for the underdogs, and this book was no exception. I still love Reacher, even if he did finally get his nose broken.

Story could have had better ending.

I would have preferred a more personal confrontation between Reacher and the baddies. Also, too much change in volume level in the performance.

From out of the fire into the frying pan!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this book to a friend because I enjoyed the characters growing, taking the risk to step up and stand up for what is right. I also enjoyed the twists in the plot that made it harder to get ahead of the story in my mind.

Which scene was your favorite?

I enjoyed using trucks as a 'guided' missile firebomb. I never would have thought of that.
