“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 “[Fans] will find themselves hanging onto their armchairs for dear life.
The Hard Way is a breathless, well-paced thriller.”
—Denver Post
“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. Early next week (why delay good news?), Reacher returns in this series' 10th installment,
The Hard Way. It's one more labyrinthine story that takes off like a shot: as usual, Mr. Child has you at hello.”
