**NOW A MAJOR PRIME TV SERIES STARRING ALAN RITCHSON**

Jack Reacher, alone, strolling nowhere. A Chicago street in bright sunshine. A young woman, struggling on crutches. Reacher offers her a steadying arm.

And turns to see a handgun aimed at his stomach.

Chained in a dark van racing across America, Reacher doesn't know why they've been kidnapped. The woman claims to be FBI. She's certainly tough enough. But at their remote destination, will raw courage be enough to overcome the hopeless odds?

Although the Jack Reacher novels can be read in any order, Die Trying is the 2nd in the series.

Critic Reviews

Jack Reacher is a wonderfully epic hero; tough, taciturn, yet vulnerable... Irresistible
Reacher combines the physique of the Commando-period Schwarzenegger with the analytical brilliance of Sherlock Holmes
The taut plot, set firmly in headline territory, lays bare the world of the rabid, worm-like militias crawling in the political underbelly of America... This is an action adventure that never gives you a moment's peace and quiet - an excellent read
Cunning and explosive...A thumping good read
A skilled, smart, violent page-turner

I’m about 10 books into the Jack Reacher saga and this is one of my favourites. A few more characters than other books so you have to pay attention. Great story that builds up nicely

Great listen
