There are people in this hostile, empty place who would rather die, than reveal their secrets. But then, if Reacher is coming after you, you might be better off dead. � © Lee Child, Andrew Child 2021 (P) Penguin Audio 2021

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Don't miss the hit streaming series Reacher Digging graves had not been part of my plans when I woke up that morning. Reacher goes where he wants, when he wants. That morning he was heading west, walking under the merciless desert sun--until he comes upon a curious scene. A Jeep has crashed into the only tree for miles around. A woman is slumped over the wheel. Dead? No, nothing is what it seems. The woman is Michaela Fenton, an army veteran turned FBI agent trying to find her twin brother, who might be mixed up with some dangerous people. Most of them would rather die than betray their terrifying leader, who has burrowed his influence deep into the nearby border town, a backwater that has seen better days. The mysterious Dendoncker rules from the shadows, out of sight and under the radar, keeping his dealings in the dark. He would know the fate of Fenton's brother. Reacher is good at finding people who don't want to be found, so he offers to help, despite feeling that Fenton is keeping secrets of her own. But a life hangs in the balance. Maybe more than one. But to bring Dendoncker down will be the riskiest job of Reacher's life. Failure is not an option, because in this kind of game, the loser is always better off dead.

Kovaa toimintaa, vangitseva juoni - teräksinen trillerisankari Jack Reacher seikkailee jälleen. Entinen sotilaspoliisi Jack Reacher ei epäröi jakaa oikeutta omin käsin. Hänen tielleen osuvat hämäräperäiset roistot saavat opetuksen: jos ryhdyt taistelemaan Jack Reacheria vastaan, kadut pian syntymääsi. Jack Reacherin seikkailuista kertovat trillerit ovat bestsellereitä ympäri maailman ja niitä ilmestyy yli 40 kielellä. Reacherista on tehty myös kaksi elokuvaa, joita tähdittää Tom Cruise, ja Amazon on tekemässä kirjoista tv-sarjaa.

Jack Reacher går av bussen i en søvning liten by utenfor Nashville, Tennessee. Planen er å ta en kaffe før han reiser videre. Men det skjer ikke. Den litte byen har blitt stengt ned av et cyberangrep. Og sentralt i det hele står Rusty Rutherford – enten han vil det eller ikke. Han er en helt gjennomsnittlig IT-fyr, men han vet mer enn han tror. Mens skurkene sikter seg inn på Rusty, har Reacher dem i sikte … Og nå som Rusty vet han er beskyttet, kommer han aldri til å forlate Reachers side. Reacher innser at han kanskje må holde seg i nærheten og finne ut hva i huleste det er som skjer … og rydde opp som bare han kan.

We have dubbed Hinterland Issue 6 our ‘non-fiction fiction special’, in which we explore the curious space where fiction and non-fiction intersect and interact. To that end Heather Martin (The Reacher Guy) recalls how she came to write the biography of Lee Child, author of the Jack Reacher series; Nick Bradley (The Cat and The City) shares some of the photographs taken on his commute in Tokyo, an experience later tapped into for his debut novel; Ashley Hickson-Lovence (The 392) tells the true story of how Ruel Fox (nearly) led Norwich City to football greatness; we explore Tash Aw’s literary archive; and share a conversation with Helen Smith (The Uncommon Reader) about renowned editor Edward Garnett, all alongside a stand-out selection of reportage, memoir, essay and flash non-fiction.

"Lee Child ger ordet bladvändare en ny innebörd." Michael ConnellyJack Reacher planerar att följa höstsolen på en storslagen roadtrip genom USA, från Maine till Kalifornien. Han kommer inte långt. På en landsväg djupt inne i New Englands skogar ser han en skylt som leder till en plats han aldrig har varit på - staden där hans pappa är uppvuxen. Han bestämmer sig för att göra en avstickare dit. I stadshuset morgonen därpå frågar Reacher var hans gamla familjehem ligger. Han får då höra att ingen vid namn Reacher någonsin har bott i staden. Reacher vet att hans far aldrig återvände till sin hemstad. Nu är frågan om han var där över huvud taget. Så inleds ännu ett adrenalinfyllt nagelbitaräventyr för vår hjälte Jack Reacher.

På vei til San Diego får Jack Reacher øye på et skilt med navnet Laconia – byen der faren hans vokste opp. Men da han begynner å undersøke, får han vite at det aldri har bodd noen Reacher i Laconia. Noen lyver – men hvorfor? Samtidig er et ungt par på vei til New York. Bilen deres byter sammen, og de må ta inn på et øde motell. Men det er noe merkelig med dette motellet, og ganske snart blir de brikker i et dødelig spill – der jokeren er Jack Reacher. «Familiehemmeligheter hjemsøker Jack Reacher i denne høyspente thrilleren fra ‘spenningens suverene mester’» Entertainment Weekly

En gjeng albanere og en gjeng ukrainere har delt den lille byen mellom seg. Det funker fint – helt til Reacher går av bussen. Jack Reacher sitter på Greyhound-bussen og betrakter en gammel mann som har sovnet. En tykk konvolutt med penger stikker opp av lommen hans. Like bortenfor sitter en ung fyr, som ikke får blikket fra pengebunken. Da raneren slår til, er Reacher klar. Etterpå takker den gamle mannen høflig, men nekter å la Reacher følge ham hjem. Han innrømmer til slutt at en av de to gjengene har taket på ham. Reacher kan ikke la være å blande seg inn. Men denne gangen kan han ikke buse rett på, han må knuse motstanderne med deres egne våpen. «Child er på sitt aller beste i denne nervepirrende thrilleren.» – Publishers Weekly Kåret av Evening Standard Magazine til en av årets beste bøker i 2019
