About this ebook

'A fascinating, swaggeringly confident performance' Sunday Times

When you're as big and rough as Jack Reacher - and you have a badly set, freshly busted nose - it isn't easy to hitch a ride in Nebraska. At last, he's picked up by three strangers - two men and a woman.

Within minutes it becomes clear they're all lying about everything - and there's a police roadblock ahead. There has been an incident, and the cops are looking for the bad guys . . .

Will they get through because the three are innocent? Or because the three are now four? Is Reacher just a decoy?

_________

Although the Jack Reacher novels can be read in any order, A Wanted Man follows on directly from the end of Worth Dying For.

And be sure not to miss Reacher's newest adventure, no.27, No Plan B! ***OUT NOW***

Ratings and reviews

A complete Jack Reacher thriller containing every single element of our hero in a wholesome mix which won't let you keep your phone down until you've satisfyingly consumed the last word on the last page. DON'T GO BY THE OTHER LOATHSOME REVIEWS YOU SEE ABOUT THIS BOOK. DON'T BE SWAYED BY THEM. This book is a bit different from the others in the giant series of Reacher books, but it is by all means a worthwhile read. If you are like me who waits with bated breath for the first Crown Vic to make appearance, if you're impressed on a whole new level when Reacher makes those inferences from practically every single thing he sees and feels and touches around him, if you are like me who forgets to complete his breath when Reacher lands a 'upper-cut' or some other blow from his inexhaustibly wide arsenal of moves, and if you like me just get a feeling that all will be right when Reacher decides to stay and do the job, you will definitely enjoy this book. And this is coming from a Sheldon fan.

Not the best Jack Teacher book. If you are choosing a Lee Child book for the first time, don't choose this one, its good enough but its not top quality Jack Reacher... Go back to this one when you have read the good ones, just to have an extra book featuring Jack Reacher.

One thing I've learned after reading 7 Jack Reacher books is that you don't have to think twice before shelling out your money for them. None of the 17 books is boring.
