Jack Reacher hunts the hunter in the third novel in Lee Child's New York Times bestselling series.

Ex military policeman Jack Reacher is enjoying the lazy anonymity of Key West when a stranger shows up asking for him. He's got a lot of questions. Reacher does too, especially after the guy turns up dead. The answers lead Reacher on a cold trail back to New York, to the tenuous confidence of an alluring woman, and the dangerous corners of his own past.

Review

"Child grabs hold with the first page and won't let go until the finish. This is pulse-pounding suspense, and Child hardly misses a beat."--The Arizona Daily Star

"Good thrillers exist in a class of their own. The point of such a book is total escape and Tripwire fills the bill. A bang-up finale which makes the reader sit back and gasp with both wonder and understanding."--The Denver Post

"Not only bang-on suspense but an insightful look into how humans work."--Houston Chronicle

"A stylish thriller as complex and disturbing as its hero."--Stephen White

"A tightly-drawn and swift thriller that gives new meaning to what a page-turner should be."--Michael Connelly

"Page for page, there's probably more fisticuffs in a Lee Child thriller than anywhere else."--Chicago Tribune

"When you put a good villain together with a great hero like Jack Reacher...the result is a thriller good to the last drop. (Child) does a great job of balancing good and evil, and certainly Hobie ranks up there with some of the most memorable villains."--The Orlando Sentinel

Another boring outing for Jack

Reviewed in Australia on 2 November 2016

Verified Purchase

This is my third Jack Reacher and despite people talking about Jack Reacher novels as being action packed they are uniformly boring. Hundreds of pages pass before you get to a good scene and it is not worth the effort. You also rapidly get to dislike the fact he always gets the good looking girl and yet does not draw too much attention from the bad guys despite being so tall. People criticised Tom Cruise for playing Jack Reacher because he is short but in reality you would need to be about his size to blend in. Each book needs editing to remove about 100 or so pages. Very sloppy.

And the adventure continues - can't put it down.

Reviewed in Australia on 26 August 2020

Although Lee Child seems to have his critics regarding the length of his books and with the detail he goes into to describe a particular situation, I find that he goes to great length to paint mind pictures as though you are watching the movie. I'm now onto Book 5 and will most likely work my way through them all. Great story and a great character. I'd like to have been Reacher.

Reviewed in Australia on 25 February 2015

Verified Purchase

OK, the 2-star rating is just because I'm comparing it with the best fictional books I've ever read. That's not to say there's not a lot to like about all the JRs I've loaded into my kindle, but they don't stand up against my favourites, because Child doesn't seem to be able to maintain his highish standard throughout the whole story. There are times when the plot just sags, it's as if there are two writers who take turns at being Lee Child and one of them's not that good. But I'll keep reading them because the good bits are excellent, in my humble opinion. You get the impression Child's gonna nail it one day, and you want to be there when he does.

Another Jack Reacher book

Reviewed in Australia on 22 August 2020

Verified Purchase

I went through a stage when I read most of these before I got a bit tired of the violence. Entertaining enough, certainly better than Clancy or Wilbur Smith.

Reviewed in Australia on 3 July 2018

Verified Purchase

I like Lee Child as an author and particularly enjoy the Jack Reacher books. The story lines hold my interest until the endings which usually have an interesting twist. Tripwire had an unexpected outcome, kept me entertained from start to finish. I plan to read all of the Jack Reacher books and look forward to each new plot.

Loved the way the story breaks up to each individual in detail to converge to the ending. Fantastic book, highly recommended!

Maybe Liam Hemsworth would have been a better Jack: )

Reviewed in Australia on 15 April 2015

Have read these out of order and now returned to the beginning to follow Jack's story in sequence. Don't think Tom Cruise did justice to Jack. Maybe Liam Hemsworth would have been a better Jack :)

Jack Reacher saga

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 October 2020

Verified Purchase

Yet another excellent story in the Jack Reacher series. I have been informed that each story stands in its own right and you do not need to read them in order. However, I have read many series of books and so far I disagree slightly. True, each story stands in its own right but I have noticed a development of facts and figures as I read it. So, I would recommend that for maximum enjoyment read them in the order in which they were written. Then even the background details will make sense as well as the main thrust of the story.

"Not what I expected"

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 November 2019

Verified Purchase

An excessive price to pay for what had too many excesses already. The violence was over the top and unnecessary. As for the visit to the clothes shop, the frequent food stops and the explanation of the three types of shower? This could have finished in half the time. Yet again I've found that one of the legends isn't as great as the hype that surrounds him suggests. Or at least he wasn't a decade ago when he wrote this. Which begs the question - why were these early books so popular? Colour me bemused.

THIS IS REACHER

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 April 2021

Verified Purchase

I just love Reachers monochrome view on solving things, its black and white, very seldom in between. Big, bluff,charmingly bad tempered Reacher draws you in and you gallop along at his pace until its solved, he leaves the gal wondering what could have been while he walks the road again.

Forget Tom Cruise, hes NOT Reacher, hes not even a poor substitute.

What the hye didn't disclose

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 September 2018

Verified Purchase

Lee Childs has written many Jack Reacher novels, all applauded and used in movies as vehicles for Tom Cruise. What a disappointment, therefore, when I decided to sample one of the many novels for myself. This is a classic case of using 200,000 words where 50,00 would have been more effective. Overlong, not well written, with a simple plot for which an attempt at complexity was achieved merely by padding.

Predictable

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 February 2022

Verified Purchase

I like the work of this author but like many of his colleagues there seems to be a predictability about any series of works. This perhaps appeals more to the younger generation who seem to prefer repetition but of the three books I have read I have worked out the ending and surprises by the half way mark.
This is a good read in the dentist waiting room as it can be read in short sessions without losing sense of the plot
