61 Hours

Jack Reacher, Book 14

De: Lee Child

Narrado por: Dick Hill

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • THE BLOCKBUSTER JACK REACHER SERIES THAT INSPIRED TWO MAJOR MOTION PICTURES AND THE STREAMING SERIES REACHER

“Reacher gets better and better. . . . [This is the] craftiest and most highly evolved of Lee Child’s electrifying Reacher books.”—Janet Maslin, The New York Times

A bus crashes in a savage snowstorm and lands Jack Reacher in the middle of a deadly confrontation. In nearby Bolton, South Dakota, one brave woman is standing up for justice in a small town threatened by sinister forces. If she’s going to live long enough to testify, she’ll need help. Because a killer is coming to Bolton, a coldly proficient assassin who never misses.

Reacher’s original plan was to keep on moving. But the next 61 hours will change everything. The secrets are deadlier and his enemies are stronger than he could have guessed—but so is the woman he’ll risk his life to save.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[The] craftiest and most highly evolved of Lee Child’s electrifying Jack Reacher books… The truth about Reacher gets better and better." —The New York Times

"Child is a superb craftsman of suspense, juggling several plots and keeping his herrings well-rouged….Best of all, this is a rare series book that reads like a stand-alone. Everything you need to know about Jack Reacher is contained within its pages. And chances are you'll want to seek out other Reacher adventures the moment you finish." —Entertainment Weekly (A-)

"Jack Reacher is much more like the heir to the Op and Marlowe than Spenser ever was." —Esquire

"As usual, Child's writing is superb. Not only is this thriller believable, but the descriptions of the blizzard will make readers want to hug their furnaces. Fast paced and exciting, this is highly recommended for thriller fans." —Library Journal (starred review)

"Get prepared for teeth-chattering suspense….Child sets up one of his most ingenious plots in the Jack Reacher chronicles. A fiery finale will leave fans talking and speculating for weeks to come." —Madison County Herald

"Child deepens the mystery considerably, providing an explosive climax that will have you tearing out your hair until Reacher's next appearance." —Miami Herald

"Once again, Child spins a riveting, ticking-clock Jack Reacher adventure….It’s guarantees you’ll finish this one in less than 61 hours—and the jolter conclusion will shock and awe you." —Romantic Times Book Review

"Implausible, irresistible Reacher remains just about the best butt-kicker in thriller-lit." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Child keeps his foot hard on the throttle...As always, Child delivers enough juicy details about the landscape, the characters, and Reacher’s idiosyncrasies to give the story texture and lower our pulse rates, if only momentarily...This is Child in top form, but isn’t he always?" —Booklist (starred review)

And so what happened?

Like the others, I would like a bit more information at the end, I don't like the cliffhangers either. It is good to know the hard copy indicates there is more to come.

Vintage Jack Reacher

Lee Child, Jack Reacher, read by Dick Hill. It doesn't get much better than this. The only problem is that I usually listen just when I'm walking or driving or at the store, so a book lasts a while. This one, however, I couldn't put down. I didn't accomplish much else, and I finished it all too quickly.

Excellent Reacher Novel

Which scene was your favorite?

Reacher is a dull dude now.

Disjointed. Not a good effort. I think Lee Child has sold this series to somebody. Not even close to the other books. Skip it unless you are like me and buy each one as soon as they come out.

All the essential JR... And then some

I loved this chapter in Jack reacher ' s life journeys. ... The descriptions of the brutal cold had me shivering and turning up the heat. .. reminders of winners past in Minnesota.
