Industry Reviews
"Stupendous....Mr. Child’s books, like Hitchcock’s films, inspire a hard-won confidence: every detail, no matter how minor, has been put into play for a reason....[They are] hugely, deservedly popular....[Jack Reacher is] one of the most enduring action heroes on the American landscape."
