[Reacher] has long since gained <b>mythical status...</b>storytelling of the highest order: <b>lean, laconic</b>, laced with tension

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>
