Review "Jack Reacher is irresistible" (Observer) "Hot, indomitable... knockout" (New York Times) "The thing about Lee Child's books is that you can't put the damn things down" (Independent on Sunday) "Child's strengths are fast-moving dialogue and gripping action sequences ... The excitement lasts from the first to the final page" (Evening Standard) "The Jack Reacher series of thrillers...are all hugely exciting, and knowledgeable about weapons and technology. They exude a powerful sense of right and wrong ... We've seen him as a right of wrongs and always as God's gift to women" (Literary Review) About the Author Lee Child is one of the world's leading thriller writers.
