From the number one bestseller: the coolest, sexiest, punch-packing Reacher thriller yet.
Lee Child is one of the world's leading thriller writers. He was born in Coventry, raised in Birmingham, and now lives in New York. It is said one of his novels featuring his hero Jack Reacher is sold somewhere in the world every nine seconds. His books consistently achieve the number-one slot on bestseller lists around the world, and are published in over one hundred territories. He is the recipient of many prizes, most recently the CWA's Diamond Dagger for a writer of an outstanding body of crime fiction. Jack Reacher, the first Jack Reacher movie starring Tom Cruise, was based on the novel One Shot, and the second is Jack Reacher: Never Go Back.
Just when you thought it couldn't possibly get any better, Lee
Child pulls Jack Reacher out of another hole and, bang, he produces
nothing short of a thriller masterpiece... Here, we get what we've
been waiting for... the story of how Reacher became Reacher
*Daily Mirror*
Jack Reacher has long since earned his prominent place in the
pantheon of cool, smart-talking American heroes... Shakes up the
status quo by delivering the Reacher creation myth... stealthily
funny... this book is really about the man himself
*The New York Times*
With its revelations and its bonk-fest, it's an unabashed
fan-pleaser, but also a timely, reassuring wallow in the undiluted
essence of Reacher
*Telegraph*
Child on top of his game. It could well be his best book yet... The
paradox of Reacher is that he is both a great big grizzly bear of a
fighter... and a thinker, both Schwarzenegger and Socrates. Make
love and war is his credo
*Independent*
Just finished The Affair. As always, hero Reacher grabs me on page
one and never lets go. Right now Lee Child is my No1 thriller
writer
*Ken Follett (on Twitter)*
I wouldn't be scared with Jack Reacher by my side... Reacher is the
kind of guy you want in your corner when things get nasty. He's a
maverick who plays by his own rules as he drifts from town to
town... And yes, there are so many guns and so much blood and
antler-locking that it's a little bit embarrassing to admit to
liking the books. But I'm not the only woman I know who does
*L. A. Times*
Lee Child is on brilliant form in The Affair... for sheer
page-turning ability it's unbeatable
*Evening Standard*
Plenty of action... much more of a whodunit than anything Lee Child
has previously written... The gripping plot and breathtaking
violence ensure it is difficult to put down
