Reacher, who has long since gained mythical status, is human after all ... This is storytelling of the highest order: lean, laconic, laced with tension * Evening Standard *
The invincible Reacher is as irresistible as ever * Sunday Telegraph *
Child is a consummate thriller writer: his prose is trim but descriptive, his plots believable, fresh and positively airtight, and shows himself a master of misdirection * Time Out *
Lee Child is often mistaken for a US writer, so skilfully and enthusiastically has he embraced the idiom of the American thriller ... One of the genre's finest practitioners * Independent *
Another cracking teeth-chatterer * Daily Mail *
Possibly the British author's best yet * Daily Mirror *
After nine well-received Jack Reacher novels in as many years, Lee Child has established his best-selling series on a firm foundation. Readers can pick up any of the books and have a good idea of what to expect. They know Reacher will perform daring acts of bravery and feats of deductive brilliance.They can expect to find a little humor, a little sex, and the best action scenes in the business. The Hard Way is a straight-ahead, high-octane thriller that drops the reader down in the middle of the story and keeps you turning the pages until the plot speeds to its thrilling conclusion. * Philadelphia Inquirer *
Nine red-hot books ago, Lee Child concocted the rough, tough Superman of the crime-busting genre, as smart and charismatic as he is unbeatable. And then Mr. Child broke the mold...Reacher returns in this series' 10th installment, The Hard Way. Reading Mr. Child is not only a mentally transporting experience but also, at times, a physical one. Don't be surprised to find your hand replicating the finger movements that tip off Reacher to a keypad matrix's four-digit combination. * New York Times *
