About this listen
THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING JACK REACHER SERIES THAT INSPIRED TWO MAJOR MOTION PICTURES AND THE STREAMING SERIES REACHER
“The truth about Reacher gets better and better. . . . This series [is] utterly addictive.”—Janet Maslin, The New York Times
Jack Reacher was alone, the way he liked it, soaking up the hot, electric New York City night, watching a man cross the street to a parked Mercedes and drive it away. The car contained one million dollars in ransom money because Edward Lane, the man who paid it, would do anything to get his family back.
Lane runs a highly illegal soldiers-for-hire operation. He will use any tool to find his beautiful wife and child. And Jack Reacher is the best manhunter in the world.
On the trail of vicious kidnappers, Reacher learns the chilling secrets of his employer’s past . . . and of a horrific drama in the heart of a nasty little war. He knows that Edward Lane is hiding something. Something dirty. Something big. But Reacher also knows this: He’s already in way too deep to stop now. And if he has to do it the hard way, he will.

From a dangerous maze of blind alleys to a daring criminal heist beneath the city, his survival instincts will once again be tested to their limit.

A major North American hydroelectric dam is blown up and the largest off-shore oil field in this hemisphere is destroyed in a brutal, coordinated terrorist attack. But there was one factor that the terrorists didn't take into account when they struck the Capitana platform off the coast of Colombia—slaughtering much of the crew and blowing up the platform—and that was the Capitana crew chief Dewey Andreas. Dewey, former Army Ranger and Delta, survives the attack, rescuing as many of his men as possible. But the battle has just begun.

Critic reviews
“A Reacher novel is the closest thing to guaranteed joy short of a honeymoon.”—Rocky Mountain News
“Plenty of suspense writers play the tough-guy-with-a-heart-of-gold card, but Child is indelibly skillful, quickly sketching intriguing characters as he drops bombshell after bombshell. With its taciturn but engaging hero and almost unbearably prolonged tension, The Hard Way makes reading easy indeed.”—The Miami Herald
“In The Hard Way, Reacher is better than ever.”—Contra Costa Times
Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time
The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

Story
My life was ordinary until three years ago when I was thrown out of a downtown hotel window. My name is Robbie Brownlaw, and I am a homicide detective for the city of San Diego. I am 29 years old. I now have synesthesia, a neurological condition where your senses get mixed up. Sometimes when people talk to me, I see their voices as colored shapes provoked by the emotions of the speakers, not by the words themselves. I have what amounts to a primitive lie detector.

Story
Matthew Worth is a mess. Somewhere between a good cop and a bad screwup, he botched a marriage and a career. His fellow officers think he’s a joke. His commanders are tired of cutting him breaks. Even his wife has left him for a flashy homicide detective. Busted to night patrol at a robbery-prone Omaha supermarket, Worth is doing time, wearing his uniform and asking shoppers if they want paper or plastic. If that isn’t enough, he suspects he might be falling for Gwen, the shy checkout girl who may be an even bigger mess than he is. It couldn’t get any worse. Until it does.

Velkommen til Margrave, Georgia - men bliv ikke alt for knyttet til stedet. Byens beboere er enten involveret i en farlig sammensværgelse, eller med hastige skridt på vej mod den sikre død... eller begge dele. Det er ikke en varm velkomst, der venter Jack Reacher, eks-militærmand, da han står af en Greyhound-bus i sydstatsbyen Margrave. Inden for kort tid arresteres han og anklages for mord. Det eneste Jack Reacher ved med sikkerhed er, at han ikke har slået nogen ihjel. I hvert fald ikke for nylig. Og slet ikke i Margrave.

But even at the height of Reacher's fame, Child's short story writing was not confined to the series; throughout the course of his career, he published tales about a range of characters on both sides of the law, including assassins, a body guard, CIA and FBI agents, gangsters, and more.

From the Stone Age to the Greek Tragedies, from Shakespeare to Robin Hood, we have always had our heroes. The hero is at the centre of formative myths in every culture and persists to this day in world-conquering books, films and TV shows. But why do these characters continue to inspire us, and why are they so central to storytelling? Scalpel-sharp on the roots of storytelling and enlightening on the history and science of myth, The Hero is essential listening for anyone trying to write or understand fiction.

Lee Child and Dick Hill do it again
Jack has a cup of coffee. Always on the go. He gets recruited by Oliver's Army. There's an abduction and our Jack is taken across New York and across the ditch to pick up on errant clues that would make General Garber proud. But without getting a break Reacher has to do this one The Hard Way. Look out for the reference to the Canaries. Lee my dear fellow- league cup aside, they could never ever be called "...any good..."

Mirror on a stick
We couldn’t figure out who the bad guy was until almost the very end. It was one of Child’s better Reacher adventures. He simply lets himself get pulled into a twisted tale. There were twists and turns and even a little humor. We think the title should have been “Mirror on a stick”

Had me sitting on the edge of my seat!
It took me awhile to figure out the clues, but I didn't completely figure it out until the very end. I know that Reacher is going to be alive at the end but still I wondered how the heck was he going to get out of this mess, this time.

A little predictable
While this is a little predictable there were still enough twists to keep you guessing to the end. As always Lee Child keeps you entertained and Jack Reacher is Jack Reacher.
