DON'T MISS REACHER ON PRIME VIDEO!

Jack Reacher is an innocent bystander when he witnesses a woman kidnapped off a Chicago street in broad daylight. In the wrong place at the wrong time, he’s kidnapped with her. Chained together, locked in the back of a stifling van, and racing across America to an unknown destination for an unknown purpose, they’re at the mercy of a group of men demanding an impossible ransom. Because this mysterious woman is worth more than Reacher ever suspected. Now he has to save them both—from the inside out—or die trying....

Ratings and reviews

One portion of this book made me have a real life anxiety attack. I have 1 irrational fear and this book made me think I was right there with Reacher in the tunnel about to suffocate. I mean I was full on sweating and breathing hard. The way Child described the situation evoked a response that I have never had reading a book. I initially watched the movie then decided to read the books in order. The 1st one, Killing Floor, got me interested. This one got me hooked. I read every book in the series and short stories in less than a year. Story was a little far fetched but that just adds to the appeal.

A little too much detail at times... get distracted from story, like author is trying too hard. End of romantic relationship is so unrealistic it's dumb.

Twisting plot and suspense that kept me turning the pages. Didn't want to put it down.
