Publisher's Summary

When you're as big and rough as Jack Reacher - and you have a badly-set, freshly-busted nose patched with silver duct tape - it isn't easy to hitch a ride. But Reacher has some unfinished business in Virginia, so he doesn't quit. And at last, he's picked up by three strangers - two men and a woman. But within minutes it becomes clear they're all lying about everything - and then they run into a police roadblock on the highway. There has been an incident, and the cops are looking for the bad guys....

Will they get through because the three are innocent? Or because the three are now four? Is Reacher just a decoy?

With his signature Swiss-watch plotting and heart-thumping suspense, A Wanted Man shows Lee Child at his sublimely skilful best.

What the Critics Say

“He could take out Bond, Dirty Harry, Jason Bourne and Ethan Hunt with both hands tied behind his back. And then sleep with their girlfriends two at a time before getting the last bus out of town” (Sun)

    "More Classic Reacher"

    As a self-confessed fan of the Jack Reacher series I was not disappointed by this latest offering from Lee Child. It contains the usual tight and clever plot line as well as plenty of the kind of dry humor and fast paced action you'd expect.
    Jeff Harding is a brilliant narrator and captures Reacher perfectly.

    "Jack Reacher always delivers in his special way."
    Where does A Wanted Man rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    Right up there, probably the best so far.


    Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

    Excellent plot . This one totally changes as you go along. One of Lee Child's best in my view. He seems to be getting better each time. So looking forward to the next one.


    Have you listened to any of Jeff Harding’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    Jeff Harding is my favorite reader. He has the ability to capture all the different voices with total conviction. You forget about the reader and are swept along by the personalities of the different characters. Keep it up Jeff.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    Yes, absolutely. Totally absorbed in story. Loved the changes in the plot. Needed to listen non stop.


    Any additional comments?

    Lee Child always my favorite. May Jack Reacher never age or change as he is one in a million.

    "Bad...very bad"

    Not Lee Childs best work. Reacher has been my favour character for years but this was a dull & boring book. I am very glad that I read all the other Reacher books before Tom Cruise was chosen to portray the character. Every now and then one pictures the diminutive Tom Cruise wearing lifts as Reacher.... it does not help

    "Good to see Reacher is back"
    If you could sum up A Wanted Man in three words, what would they be?

    A wanted read


    Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

    Yes, always something happening, some good twists and turns.


    Which character – as performed by Jeff Harding – was your favorite?

    Jack Reacher


    If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

    N/A


    Any additional comments?

    Reacher books are good, but I think Lee is getting carried away with the scene and history descriptions that sometimes appear to go on with no actual relevance to the rest of the story. Sounds a little picky i know, but the first books in the series weren't as bad as they are now. Not bad, but you know what I mean.... :-)
