Lee Child is one of the world’s leading thriller writers. He was born in Coventry, raised in Birmingham, and now lives in England's Lake District. It is said one of his novels featuring his hero Jack Reacher is sold somewhere in the world every nine seconds. His books consistently achieve the number-one slot on bestseller lists around the world and have sold over one hundred million copies. Lee is the recipient of many awards including Author of the Year at the 2019 British Book Awards. He was appointed CBE in the 2019 Queen's Birthday Honours.The <b>bone-crunching, joint-popping</b> action is as technically precise and <b>primevally satisfying</b> as ever. The extra-lean prose is as<b> ruthlessly</b> 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 <b>man of steel</b>. Eighteen novels in, his franchise shows no sign of running out of steam.

<p>Lee Child’s <b>bodacious</b> action hero, Jack Reacher, has already tramped through 17 novels and three ebook singles. But his latest, “Never Go Back,” may be the best <b>desert island reading</b> in the series. It’s <b>exceptionally</b> well plotted. And full of <b>wild</b> surprises. And <b>wise</b> about Reacher’s peculiar nature.<br />/Mr. Child’s Jack Reacher series is as brainy as it is brawny...Starting with an opening sequence that throws three huge surprises at Reacher, there are more neat tricks and clever set pieces in this one volume than Mr. Child has ever strung together before...Read it. You’ll see why.</p>
- Janet Maslin, New York Times
Is Reacher getting <b>soft?</b> Not a chance. The <b>righteous </b>violence when it comes is still pretty <b>astonishing</b>. This is one of Reacher's <b>best </b>outings. A <b>must </b>for all fans.
Daily Express
Jack Reacher is a <b>man's man, </b>a loner, a <b>renegade</b> crusader for justic...The <b>harder-than-nails</b> hero is on the <b>top</b> of his form...You'd better read it.

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
<b>Fast-paced</b>, taut and <b>punchy</b>, fans will love this.

'FAST-PACED, TAUT AND PUNCHY' Sunday Times
After an epic and interrupted journey all the way from the snows of South Dakota, Jack Reacher has finally made it to Virginia. His destination, the closest thing to a home he ever had: the headquarters of his old unit, the 110th Military Police.
Why? He wants to meet the new commanding officer, Major Susan Turner. He liked her voice on the phone. 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.
