From The Publisher* | Jack Reacher visits a town without pity in the first novel in Lee Child's New York Times bestselling series. Ex-military policeman Jack Reacher is a drifter. He's just passing through Margrave, Georgia, and in less than an hour, he's arrested for murder. Not much of a welcome. All Reacher knows is that he didn't kill anybody. At least not here. Not lately. But he doesn't stand a chance of convincing anyone. Not in Margrave, Georgia. Not a chance in hell. NEW INTRODUCTION BY THE AUTHOR |
Review Quote* | "Terrific . . . Fascinating . . . Brutal . . . [Lee Child] knows what he's doing."-The New York Times |
