Winter in South Dakota. Blowing snow, icy roads, a tired driver. A bus skids and crashes and is stranded in a gathering storm.
There's a small town 20 miles away, where a vulnerable witness is guarded around the clock. There's a strange stone building five miles further on, all alone on the prairie. There's a ruthless man who controls everything from the warmth of Mexico.
Jack Reacher hitched a ride in the back of the bus. A life without baggage has many advantages. And crucial disadvantages too, when it means facing the arctic cold without a coat. But he's equipped for the rest of his task. He doesn't want to put the world to rights. He just doesn’t like people who put it to wrongs.

I did not like the ending. It was wrong on multiple levels. It's a surprise ending, of sorts, I didn't see coming. Some people will like it. Up until the last chapter, this was Reacher at his best. A little more introspective than usual, which I liked. And the descriptions of the cold, the ice and snow and the limitations on movement and comfort imposed by the extreme weather were brilliant. I read a lot of Nordic noir, and none of those books have chilled me to the bone like this. Brilliant writing but ultimately disappointing.

Bit drawn out. Not like the early Jack Reacher novels. Not sure what the 61 hours was all about. The best Reacher stories were those when he was on the move and left you wondering what would come next. This story was a somewhat complicated with too many sub-plots. Not a real page turner.

I am gradually working my way through all the Jack Reacher books and this one was a good one - that's for damn sure! He is up against some real bad guys, both local and international. There are bikers, meth labs, intrigue - it has it all. There is also the countdown to zero hour - a great listen. I find Jack just gets better the more you read.

Another really really enjoyable read from Lee Child's. Such a great writer. Jack Reacher is so awesome character. Still so annoyed that they casted friggin Tom friggin Cruise as Jack Reacher in the movie. Grrrr.

I've read almost all of the Reacher novels. I think that most are great but there a couple that I didn't find that engrossing. This one falls into the second category. I can't say too much more without a spoiler alert

Is the book "61 Hours" only 495 pages long or have I been short changed by Amazon? The book end with Reacher returning to the 7 bikers and then....... zip!

What an adventure, as it counts down you have to wonder exactly what it is at the end of it.

Jack finds himself in a new town in intense cold. He makes himself invaluable to the local police force, finds himself in the middle of a drug war and, finally, kills the baddies. Oh, and he has a long-distance romance with a female military police officer. Sound familiar?

That Reacher creature.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 October 2020Verified Purchase
I'm working my way through the Jack Reacher books in publication order. 61 hours is number 14 in the order. This means I have ploughed my way through about 50/60 hours perhaps more of the adventures of Jack.
I feel therefore qualified to make a reasonable assessment of these books. And that assessment is everyone should have 'Jack Reacher' in their lives.
He has helped me through 'lock down', taken me to impossible land, satisfied all outcomes wanted and given me all the mentioned hours of escapism and pleasure.
Mr Child incorporates most of the requirements that I love into his prose and writing. Short chapters, fluent prose, not too many big words that no one else understands. The character he has created in 'jack' is so unbelievable that he is believable in his superhuman way, a kind of genius from Mr child.
'Jack' in his 'Dirty Harry' way always gets the baddies.
If you are thinking about getting into these books and my humble opinion is worth anything, go for it.

Jack Reacher being Jack Reacher
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 December 2019Verified Purchase
Lee Child has a basic formula and if it ain't broke, don't fix it. For those not familiar with Jack Reacher, then basically good guy meets bad guys(s) and kicks the **** out of them. 61 Hours is no different as plots go but Child's insight into how Reacher thinks through each scenario he finds himself in, never fails to draw me in. That's why i enjoy his books so much and keep coming back for more. I accept they won't be to everyones taste but worth a punt IMO.

"Thank you", Lee Child - brilliant!!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 February 2015Verified Purchase
I watched the film "Jack Reacher" before reading any of the books - Had it of been the other way round, I probably wouldn't have watched the film.
I bought "Never Go Back" with "Killing Floor" at half price almost on a whim. I started with "Killing Floor" and am currently on "The Affair" having bought every one of the series and have pre ordered anything not yet in print.
Why? I found that the character was so believable AND readable plus in each of the books I found Lee Child had inserted and described in such absorbing detail, small almost irrelevancies that were as good to read as the main storyline that they became, not just fillers as other authors insert, but real and very readable. I can't praise the series enough - each and every book has really brought back my love of reading - "Thank you", Lee Child - brilliant!!

I love these books,
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 November 2020Verified Purchase
But something was missing, action! I did end up finishing it, but then I found out I should read/buy the next book....very disappointed. Had a look at the latest book, Sentinel, but at £9.99 for the kindle version I shall not be buying! Too expensive for a three star book with not much action at all! 61 hours, not recommended

I enjoy these books (Lee Child)
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 February 2018Verified Purchase
I enjoy these books (Lee Child). Comfort reading, I think it's called. When I haven't got one to read I miss it.
If you read for fun (rather than for work) I would suggest that you try at least one Lee Child book. Obviously, you won't impress anyone, but you'll be left with a feeling that the good generally conquer the bad.
A bit like The Lone Ranger or Bonanza one hundred years ago ... but definitely worth a read.
