Evening Standard
Reacher is one of those characters who is <b>admired</b> by his male readers and <b>lusted </b>after by his female ones in equal measure . . . Child's <b>tough-as-nails</b> protagonist has become one of the most appealing of contemporary <b>heroes</b>
Daily Express
One of the truly memorable <b>tough-guy heroes</b> in recent fiction
- Jeffrey Deaver,
Forget the <b>A-team</b>. If you're in a fix, and you want help, you need Jack Reacher....the twists come <b>thick and fast</b>, the false trails are cleverly laid and the<b> surprise</b> developments are genuinely unexpected...Child, as always, delivers
Yorkshire Evening Post
Perhaps there are action-lit writers more recognizable than Child, but the bet is that none of them will turn in a tighter-plotted, richer-peopled, faster-paced page-turner this year
Kirkus - starred review
As always, the action is intense, the pace unrelenting, and the violence unforgiving. Child remains the reigning master at combining breakneck yet brilliantly constructed plotting with characters who continually surprise us with their depth
Booklist - starred review
<p>It's his hero, hyper-tough ex-US army special investigator Jack <br />Reacher, who keeps me coming back for more...never a dull moment</p>

** REACHER SEASON 2: BAD LUCK AND TROUBLE out now on Prime video **
"The invincible Reacher is as irresistible as ever." (Sunday Telegraph)
You do not mess with Jack Reacher.
He is as close to untraceable as a person can get. A loner comfortable in his anonymity and solitude. So when a member of his old Army unit finds a way to contact him, he knows this has to be serious.
You do not mess with the Special Investigators.
In the past the elite team always watched each other's backs. Now one of them has shown up dead in the California desert and six more are missing.
Reacher's old buddies are in big trouble, and he can't let that go.
_________
Although the Jack Reacher novels can be read in any order, Bad Luck and Trouble is the 11th in the series.
And be sure not to miss Reacher's newest adventure, no.29, In Too Deep! ***OUT NOW***
