Product description

Review

Absolutely loved Past Tense – Lee Child just gets better and better, which is a very rare quality in a writer of a long-run series. Whip smart, always compelling, always fun, he is dangerously addictive. -- Peter James

Jack Reacher is today's James Bond, a thriller hero we can't get enough of -- Ken Follett

I loved it. One of the best. -- Jonathan Ross

It’s Lee Child. Why would you not read it? -- Karin Slaughter

Sometimes you just want someone who can beat the s*** out of people! I pick up Jack Reacher when I’m in the mood for someone big to solve my problems -- Patricia Cornwell

Book Description

The most hotly anticipated paperback thriller of the year follows our hero Jack Reacher on a quest into his father's past, and climaxes in the most stomach-clenching, hair-raising, blood-curdling ticking time bomb of an adventure yet.
