|summary=While it's rather similar to all of the other Jack Reacher books, there's a reason for that - Child has created one of the most entertaining series of recent times. Why change a winning formula?

Jack Reacher is calling on a lady friend. He's never actually met her, they've just spoken on the phone, and he likes her voice. For a drifter like Reacher with nothing better to do, that's a good enough reason to head to Virginia and maybe buy her a coffee. Except when he arrives at his old unit's headquarters, the lady he wants to meet - new commanding officer Major Susan Turner - isn't there. Instead, he finds himself accused of homicide, and brought back into the army. Someone is going to be very sorry about this.
As long as that's not an issue for readers, this is absolutely a recommendation. Child is one of the only two adult authors who is on my personal 'must buy' list - Daniel Abraham, the epic fantasy author, being the other - which gives you some idea of how consistently good he is. This is the 18th in the series, and Random House announced earlier today that he's signed a deal for another 3. I'm certainly on board for them all!
Anything else by Child is worth checking out - in addition to the Reacher series, short story collections [[Vengeance by Lee Child (Editor)]] and [[Killer Year by Lee Child (Editor)]], which he edited, are enjoyable. Here at the Bookbag, we're also big fans of his brother's debut novel, [[Even by Andrew Grant]]. We heard echos of Reacher in [[Kill the Next One by Federico Axat]]. [[Lee Child's Jack Reacher Novels in Chronological Order]]
