SynopsisEx-military Jack Reacher returns in this breathtaking new thriller by an author praised for his "great style and careful plotting" (The New York Times.)Critics nationwide acclaimed Killing Floor, Lee Child's suspense debut, as "a tough, compelling thriller with characters who jump off the page" (Houston Chronicle). "Brilliantly written", agreed Playboy. "Striking", applauded The Chicago Tribune. "An unsettling trip that leaves your brain buzzing and your stomach knotted", warned The Philadelphia Inquirer. "Relentlessly suspenseful", The Denver Post concurred.In a quiet Chicago suburb, a dentist is attacked in his office parking lot and forced into the trunk of his Lexus. On a sidewalk downtown, Jack Reacher and an unknown woman are abducted in broad daylight. Wordlessly and without warning, two armed men -- confident, rehearsed, tense -- hustle them into the same sedan. Then Reacher and the woman are switched into a second vehicle and hauled away, leaving the dentist bound and gagged inside his car with the woman's abandoned possessions, two gallons of gasoline...and a burning match.Building on this harrowing start, Lee Child brings us another novel of nonstop high-speed suspense. Die Trying confirms his sizable talent and the magnetic appeal of Reacher, a hero who "seems like someone with plenty of tales to tell" (The Philadelphia Inquirer). Fortunately for us, he is and he will.

  • Don't Wait!

    If you have not read Lee Child, and you are looking for books with a great hook, Child's got them. His character, Jack Reacher, is a formidable guy that when he sees something that needs righting, he's your man. Child has a particularly strong talent of reeling you in even before the first chapter has ended. And then he keeps you hooked. I own every single Jack Reacher book, so let's say I'm a fan. Try him-you may find your next favorite author! Sometimes, I just want to grab my toothbrush, ditch the real world, and BE Jack Reacher!

  • Great Book

    It’s a Jack Reacher book by Lee Child in hardcover so it’s a great book. Did I pay too much for the book, probably, but it was difficult to find in hardcover. The market demanded much higher prices so perhaps i should consider it a bargain. Shipping took forever, but it was free.

  • Brother so happy ro receive

    I've read most Reacher books and my brother just discovered Lee Child. He's so thankful I sent this because he's home with covid and is almost done with his first book. He's enjoying the series.

  • A top five Reacher book

    Reacher walks (literally) into big trouble. It involves POTUS, FBI, Generals and very bad guys. A must read for Reacher fans!

  • Contents applies to today's political crazy's

    Even though this novel was written in the late 1990's, it feels like it was written in the last couple of months.
