Praise for the Jack Reacher series "The truth about Reacher gets better and better. . . . This series [is] utterly addictive." --Janet Maslin, The New York Times "Jack Reacher is today's James Bond, a thriller hero we can't get enough of. I read every one as soon as it appears." --Ken Follett "Reacher is the stuff of myth. . . . One of this century's most original, tantalizing pop-fiction heroes." -- The Washington Post "I'm a fan." --James Patterson "The Reacher novels are easily the best thriller series going." --NPR "Reacher is a man for whom the phrase moral compass was invented: His code determines his direction. . . . You need Jack Reacher." -- The Atlantic "I pick up Jack Reacher when I'm in the mood for someone big to solve my problems." --Patricia Cornwell "[A] feverishly thrilling series . . . You can always count on furious action." -- Miami Herald, Praise for Better Off Dead "The mixture of brute-force and intellectual problem-solving is just right." --Booklist "Smart writing, vivid action scenes, and dramatic twists mark this seamless effort. Even those for whom this is their first Reacher novel will be clamoring for more." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Lee Child and Andrew Child return for another jointly written Reacher adventure. . . . Andrew Child smoothly slips into the signature minimalist prose of the iconic series, picking up just where his brother leaves off, for a book that should please old stalwarts and new fans alike." -- CrimeReads Praise for the Jack Reacher series "The truth about Reacher gets better and better. . . .

Synopsis
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Jack Reacher is back in a brand-new page-turning thriller from acclaimed #1 bestselling authors Lee Child and Andrew Child. Digging graves had not been part of my plans when I woke up that morning. Reacher goes where he wants, when he wants. That morning he was heading west, walking under the merciless desert sun--until he comes upon a curious scene. A Jeep has crashed into the only tree for miles around. A woman is slumped over the wheel. Dead? No, nothing is what it seems. The woman is Michaela Fenton, an army veteran turned FBI agent trying to find her twin brother, who might be mixed up with some dangerous people. Most of them would rather die than betray their terrifying leader, who has burrowed his influence deep into the nearby border town, a backwater that has seen better days. The mysterious Dendoncker rules from the shadows, out of sight and under the radar, keeping his dealings in the dark. He would know the fate of Fenton's brother. Reacher is good at finding people who don't want to be found, so he offers to help, despite feeling that Fenton is keeping secrets of her own. But a life hangs in the balance. Maybe more than one. But to bring Dendoncker down will be the riskiest job of Reacher's life. Failure is not an option, because in this kind of game, the loser is always better off dead., #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * THE BLOCKBUSTER JACK REACHER SERIES THAT INSPIRED TWO MAJOR MOTION PICTURES AND THE STREAMING SERIES REACHER Digging graves had not been part of my plans when I woke up that morning.

    Wow! Not only was 5-CD box set in the promised sealed and new condition, it was shipped to ensure the item arrived as advertised. The box set was enveloped in a jiffy bag which was cushioned by crumpled packing paper, shipped in a well-sealed box. The care taken may have something to do with the Seller's main business which would demand accurate description of items for sale and their eventual shipment; whatever the reason, an altogether wonderful transaction!

    Not getting older; getting better!

    Have read all of the Reacher novels and shorts-This one is not my favorite but it's pretty good. I like the way the authors have Reacher put together the clues leading to the discovery of the explosive devices... The book arrived in good shape. Looks like it was only read once.

  • COMPELLING!

    Lee Child has been my favorite author for the past year, and I have read all of his books in order from this first written and have found them to be very compelling and hard to put down once opened. I highly recommend all of Child's books to any mystery lover.

  • If you like to see the little guy avenged, you'll probably like these novels.

    Pretty well done novel; however personally I prefer the previous books written by Lee Child alone, to the current one written in conjunction with his brother. No offense meant to his brother; I just like the styling better.

  • Yawn

    . Book was boring and tedious. I will only read Lee Child books, not his brother's.
