One Shot

Jack Reacher, Book 9

De: Lee Child

Narrado por: Dick Hill

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

“Pure, escapist gold . . . Mr. Child’s tough talk and thoughtful plotting make an ingenious combination.”—The New York Times

Six shots. Five dead. One heartland city thrown into a state of terror. But within hours the cops have it solved: a slam-dunk case. Except for one thing. The accused man says: You got the wrong guy. Then he says: Get Reacher for me.

And sure enough, ex—military investigator Jack Reacher is coming. He knows this shooter–a trained military sniper who never should have missed a shot. Reacher is certain something is not right–and soon the slam-dunk case explodes.

Now Reacher is teamed with a beautiful young defense lawyer, moving closer to the unseen enemy who is pulling the strings. Reacher knows that no two opponents are created equal. This one has come to the heartland from his own kind of hell. And Reacher knows that the only way to take him down is to match his ruthlessness and cunning–and then beat him shot for shot.

saw movie first; got book to get deeper

Would you listen to Jack Reacher: One Shot again? Why?

Yes, This book was a good, well written detective novel with the unparalleled Jack Reacher as a distinct and singular good guy with a real mean streak.

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

I couldn't put it down, I was at a birthday party for my son's friend and just kept listening to the book. It was a bit anti- social but I wanted to finish.

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

Dick brought the characters to life for me. He gave them depth and breadth.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

no. It was just enjoyable. I love a book that makes me want to come back to it.

This is another great series.

Love this series and Jack Reacher is amazing. He gets himself into all kinds of trouble but seems to get out of it.

Better than the movie

Good story, full of action, interesting characters. Makes me want to watch the movie again. threre are details in the book I don't remember from the movie. I am a Lee Child fan.

Better than the movie

I hesitated to listen to this, having seen the movie. But there were enough differences to make it thoroughly enjoyable.

Entertaining

Pretty good story. A little slow for me, but interesting and a little bit of some good Reacher but kicking, but not much.
