And be sure not to miss Reacher's newest adventure, no.26, Better off Dead!
The dynamic second thriller from the number one bestselling author of KILLING FLOOR
The dynamic second thriller from the number one bestselling author of Killing Floor, Lee Child, Die Trying promises a rollercoaster of suspense, action, and intrigue as former military policeman Jack Reacher once again finds himself in the heart of unexpected trouble.
Jack Reacher, a loner wandering through life, is strolling nowhere in particular when he finds himself on a Chicago street, bathed in bright sunshine. His impromptu heroism kicks in when he sees a young woman struggling on crutches, and he offers her a steadying arm. In an instant, his world is turned upside down when he finds a firearm aimed at his stomach.
Kidnapped and chained in a dark van racing across America, Reacher is plunged into a desperate situation with a woman who claims to be an FBI agent. Her grit and resilience make her a credible ally, but the truth behind their abduction remains a mystery. As the van speeds towards a remote and enigmatic destination, Reacher battles to decipher the motives of their captors and prepares to summon every ounce of his raw courage to surmount the insurmountable odds that await them.
A master of his craft, Lee Child delivers nail-biting tension and edge-of-your-seat action in Die Trying. This second instalment of the Jack Reacher series follows the resourceful and unstoppable protagonist on another gripping adventure, blending brilliant storytelling with intricate plotting.
While each Jack Reacher novel stands alone, Die Trying marks the second exciting entry in the series. And don't miss out on Reacher's newest adventure in his 29th caper, In Too Deep - available for pre-order now!
