by Lee Child (Author)

Synopsis

NOW FILMED AS THE SECOND JACK REACHER MOVIE, STARRING TOM CRUISE Drop-out military cop Jack Reacher has finally hitch-hiked his way to Virginia. His destination, the closest thing to a home he ever had: the headquarters of his old unit, the 110th Military Police. Reacher has no real reason to be here, except that he spoke to the new commanding officer on the phone. He liked Major Susan Turner's voice. But now he's arrived, she's disappeared, and things are getting weird. Accused of a sixteen-year-old homicide and co-opted back into the army, Reacher says nothing. But he's sure as hell thinking of a way out. `Reacher is a man's man, a loner, a renegade crusader for justice...on the top of his form' Sun `Bone-crunching, joint-popping... a man of steel' Evening Standard

Media Reviews
He's such a fascinating character to me...he's a wish fulfilment for people. Reacher is brutal. He's that guy whose eyeline you don't want to be in. If you did something wrong and he's got his eye on you, you're gonna lose. * Tom Cruise (in Empire) *
This may well be the best of the bunch...some of the best, wiliest writing Child has ever done. * Scotland on Sunday *
As always, Reacher's laidback style of narration belies a propulsive pace,although Never Go Back finds Reacher emotionally vulnerable for once, and a warmer, more satisfyingly empathic character for the experience. * Irish Times *
Fast-paced, taut and punchy, fans will love this. * Sunday Mirror *
The bone-crunching, joint-popping action is as technically precise and primevally satisfying as ever. The extra-lean prose is as ruthlessly linear as the plot...[However,]Lee Child proves he can write about emotions other than lust and anger and reveals his hero to be more than just a man of steel. Eighteen novels in, his franchise shows no sign of running out of steam. -- Mark Sanderson * Evening Standard *
