Narrado por: Dick Hill

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Don’t miss the hit streaming series Reacher!

Never Go Back is a novel of action-charged suspense starring “one of the best thriller characters at work today” (Newsweek).

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.

When threatened, you can run or fight.

Reacher fights, aiming to find Turner and clear his name, barely a step ahead of the army, and the FBI, and the D.C. Metro police, and four unidentified thugs.

Combining an intricate puzzle of a plot and an exciting chase for truth and justice, Lee Child puts Reacher through his paces—and makes him question who he is, what he’s done, and the very future of his untethered life on the open road.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A breathless cross-country spree . . . some of the best, wiliest writing [Lee] Child has ever done . . . Child’s bodacious action hero, Jack Reacher, has already tramped through 17 novels and three e-book singles. But his latest, Never Go Back, may be the best desert island reading in the series. It’s exceptionally well plotted. And full of wild surprises. And wise about Reacher’s peculiar nature. And positively Bunyanesque in its admiring contributions to Reacher lore.”—Janet Maslin, The New York Times

“Welcome to the relentless world of Jack Reacher and his impressive tendency to be in the wrong place at the right time. . . . Child has created an iconic character that other thriller writers try to emulate but don’t come close to matching. He has a talent for taking material that in the hands of other authors would be stale and making it seem fresh. . . . Tight and compelling . . . Never Go Back is one of Child’s best novels.”—Associated Press

“An adrenaline-charged, action-packed thriller . . . impossible to put down.”—Lansing State Journal

“The dialogue has never been sharper. . . . The pages turn themselves.”—San Antonio Express-News

“For the pure pleasure of uncomplicated, nonstop action, no one touches Reacher.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“Brilliant . . . Child never, ever slips. He keeps the action cranking better than anyone, but, best of all, he keeps us guessing about Reacher.”—Booklist (starred review)

“One of the best in the series.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

So glad Reacher's back!

I must say, I never knew how much I missed Reacher. I was outraged to see "the great pretender" portray my 6'4" blonde and blue-eyed hero on the movie trailers. Having listened to every story and loving every minute of everyone, I was literary-ly starving for the real deal. Child delivered. Thank God!

Lee Child delivers. First rate Jack Reacher.

Where does Never Go Back rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Somewhere in the middle of the pack. Reacher is getting too old for this: jet setting across the country kicking butt. When the author hints Reacher has a daughter he never met, it got more interesting but Lee Child suffers writer's let down and Reacher goes back to being Reacher. Even his woman gets tired of him. Are we getting tired of him too?

What did you like best about this story?

Reacher searching for his possible long lost daughter was pretty fascinating.

What does Dick Hill bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Dick Hill has the voice of Reacher. This is a first rate reading.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The conversation Reacher has with his teenage daughter.

Any additional comments?

Read them all in order so you have some semblance of who Jack Reacher is. Some of you will get bored with it but Never Go Back is formula Reacher.

Great story line.

intense from the first chapter and steady throughout. Very enjoyable read. Jack Reacher at his finest.

excellent book.

not the usual reacher book. it has some excellent twists and turns and of course as many subtle nuances.

Lee Child enthralling story teller!!

Loved to get lost in the book best thing is when you can't get out of the car, even though you're home, just to keep listening! Love love love Lee Child and Jack Reacher = )
