Description
Brought to you by Penguin.
Reacher never backs down from a problem.
And he's about to find a big one, on a deserted road in Arizona, where a car has crashed into the only tree for miles around.
Minutes later, Reacher is heading into town. To introduce himself to the shadowy crew who made it happen.
Their boss has a terrifying reputation and the stakes are high. Just to get in and meet him, Reacher is going to have to achieve the impossible.
To get answers will be even harder. 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.

Reviews / Votes
Classic Reacher, great story. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. * Conn Iggulden on THE SENTINEL * Thoroughly entertaining . . . it's good to have some of Reacher's brutal certainties back. * The Times on THE SENTINEL * The one man revenge machine seems revitalised. Great stuff. * Sun on THE SENTINEL * The coolest continuing series character. * Stephen King * Jack Reacher is today's James Bond, a thriller hero we can't get enough of. * Ken Follett * Everyone needs to kick some butt sometimes, even if it's just imaginary. * Jojo Moyes * The Child brothers' superb second collaboration . . . Smart writing, vivid action scenes, and dramatic twists mark this seamless effort. Even those for whom this is their first Reacher novel will be clamouring for more. * Publishers Weekly *More details
