Sin embargo, el acusado insiste en su inocencia y solicita a Jack Reacher. El ex-investigador militar, que vive fuera del sistema, pronto llega para descubrir la verdad. A medida que Reacher profundiza en el caso, se da cuenta de que la situación es mucho más complicada, con vidas entrelazadas de maneras inesperadas y un asesino que falló un disparo crítico. El tirador, un francotirador entrenado llamado James Barr, actuó desde una estructura de estacionamiento cercana, apuntando a víctimas inocentes. Sin embargo, el deseo de Barr de involucrar a Reacher plantea interrogantes, ya que Reacher es la última persona que Barr querría. Cuando Reacher escucha las palabras de Barr, el caso da un giro dramático. Asociándose con una joven abogada defensora que lucha contra su padre fiscal y un equipo de acusación que oculta secretos, Reacher navega por un campo de batalla complejo. Para prevalecer, Reacher debe entender la crueldad y astucia de su adversario, preparándose para una confrontación que pondrá a prueba su determinación y habilidades.

Si quiere escapar con vida del nido de serpientes en el que se encuentra, tendrá que aguzar sus sentidos y demostrar por qué es un superviviente nato. La primera novela protagonizada por Jack Reacher es una poderosa muestra del talento de Lee Child para narrar historias que atrapan desde la primera página.

Su objetivo: hablar con la comandante Susan Turner, oficial al mando. Parece una tarea fácil pero no lo va a ser. Ni mucho menos. La comandante Turner ha sido arrestada con unos cargos de lo más insólitos. Y eso no es lo peor, porque Reacher también va a ser acusado de algo mucho más grave.

THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER NOW A RICHARD & JUDY BOOKCLUB 2018 PICK Jack Reacher is having a bad day. It would be a dumb idea to make it worse. Reacher sees a West Point class ring in a pawn shop window. It's tiny. It's a woman cadet's graduation present to herself. Why would she give it up? Reacher was a West Pointer too, and he knows what she went through to get it. All he wants is to find the woman. He'll have to go through bikers, cops, crooks, and low-life muscle.

Milne arrives in a pre-Christmas London that is cold and hostile. But he is no longer a policeman; no longer charged with upholding the law.

But within minutes of his arrival a deputy is in the hospital and Reacher is back in Hope, setting up a base of operations against Despair, where a huge, seething walled-off industrial site does something nobody is supposed to see ... where a small plane takes off every night and returns seven hours later ... where a garrison of well-trained and well-armed military cops --the kind of soldiers Reacher once commanded--waits and watches ... where above all two young men have disappeared and two frightened young women wait and hope for their return. Joining forces with a beautiful cop who runs Hope with a cool hand, Reacher goes up against Despair--against the deputies who try to break him and the rich man who tries to scare him--and starts to crack open the secrets, starts to expose the terrifying connection to a distant war that's killing Americans by the thousand.

That attention comes from the secretary of defense. All of a sudden he wants an interagency task force to investigate. And he wants Jack Reacher as the army’s representative. If Reacher gets a result, great. If not, he’s a convenient fall guy. But office politics isn’t Reacher’s thing.

Chicago. 1992. A hospital patient wakes to find two strangers by his bed. They show him a list of names and ask a simple but impossible question. Minutes later he falls to his death from his twelfth-floor window - a fall which generates some unexpected attention. That attention comes from the Secretary of Defense, who calls for an inter-agency task force to investigate. Jack Reacher, recently demoted from Major, is assigned as the Army's representative. If he gets a result, great. If not, he's a convenient fall guy. Reacher may be an exceptional military investigator, but office politics aren't what gets him up in the morning. As he races to identify a cold-blooded killer and uncover a secret that stretches back 23 years, he must navigate around his new partners. Will Reacher bring the bad guys to justice the official way . . . or his way?[Bokinfo].

With trusted sergeant Frances Neagley at his side, he must carry the fate of the world on his shoulders, in a wired, fiendishly clever new adventure that will make the cold sweat trickle down your spine.

Jack Reacher is back in a brand new white-knuckle read from Lee Child, creator of 'today's James Bond, a thriller hero we can't get enough of' (Ken Follett). In a nameless city, two ruthless rival criminal gangs, one Albanian, the other Ukrainian, are competing for control. But they hadn't counted on Jack Reacher arriving on their patch. Reacher is trained to notice things. He's on a Greyhound bus, watching an elderly man sleeping in his seat, with a fat envelope of cash hanging out of his pocket. Another passenger is watching too ... obviously hoping to get rich quick. As the mugger makes his move, Reacher steps in. The old man is grateful, yet he turns down Reacher's offer to help him home. He's vulnerable, scared, and clearly in big, big trouble. What hold could the gangs possibly have on the old guy? Will Reacher sit back and let bad things happen? Or can he twist the situation to everyone's benefit? 'This is a random universe,' he says. 'Once in a blue moon things turn out just right.' The odds are better with Reacher involved. That's for damn sure.

You can leave the army, but the army doesn’t leave you. Not always. Not completely, notes Jack Reacher—and sure enough, the retired military cop is soon pulled back into service. This time, for the State Department and the CIA.Someone has taken a shot at the president of France in the City of Light. The bullet was American. The distance between the gunman and the target was exceptional. How many snipers can shoot from three-quarters of a mile with total confidence? Very few, but John Kott—an American marksman gone bad—is one of them. And after fifteen years in prison, he’s out, unaccounted for, and likely drawing a bead on a G8 summit packed with enough world leaders to tempt any assassin.If anyone can stop Kott, it’s the man who beat him before: Reacher. And though he’d rather work alone, Reacher is teamed with Casey Nice, a rookie analyst who keeps her cool with Zoloft. But they’re facing a rough road, full of ruthless mobsters, Serbian thugs, close calls, double-crosses—and no backup if they’re caught. All the while Reacher can’t stop thinking about the woman he once failed to save. But he won’t let that that happen again. Not this time. Not Nice.Reacher never gets too close. But now a killer is making it personal.

Jack Reacher gets off the bus in a sleepy no-name town outside Nashville, Tennessee. He plans to grab a cup of coffee and move right along. Not going to happen.

Nigdy nie wiesz, do czyjego samochodu wsiądziesz, kiedy łapiesz okazję. Ale nie ma takiego kierowcy czy towarzysza podróży, z którym Jack Reacher by sobie nie poradził. Zimową nocą na autostradzie w Nebrasce nie jest łatwo złapać okazję. Zwłaszcza jeśli jest się wielkim, groźnie wyglądającym facetem, w dodatku z krwawiącym nosem. Ale Reacher ma do załatwienia sprawę w Wirginii, więc nie rezygnuje. I w końcu jego cierpliwość zostaje nagrodzona wsiada do chevroleta, którym jedzie dwóch mężczyzn i kobieta. Szybko się orientuje, że żadne z nich nie jest tym, za kogo się podaje, i zastanawia się, jaką przypisali mu rolę. Bo nie jest naiwny; wie, że nie zabrali go ze sobą z dobrego serca. Nie wie natomiast, że tej samej nocy w Nebrasce doszło do morderstwa, które wygląda na robotę zawodowców, i że policja rozsyła komunikaty o dwóch podejrzanych mężczyznach widzianych na miejscu zbrodni. Nie wie też, że gra toczy się o znacznie więcej niż zwykłe morderstwo. Paradoksalnie Reacher jest jednocześnie zabijaką, niebezpiecznym jak grizzly, i myślicielem. Schwarzenegger i Sokrates w jednym. Independent

Svazek obsahuje zkrácené verze čtyř úspěšných románů různých žánrů od světových autorů. Jednotlivé tituly jsou doplněny stručnými informacemi o jejich tvůrcích. Tento svazek obsahuje romány: 1) Lee Child: Únos - Bývalý vojenský vyšetřovatel Jack Reacher se nikdy neváhá postavit na stranu spravedlnosti. Když si ho najme záhadný pan Lane, aby vystopoval únosce jeho ženy a dcery, využívá všech svých zkušeností, aby odhalil pachatele a našel oběti únosu. Otázkou ovšem je, zda s ním Lane hraje čistou hru. 2) Nicholas Sparks: Odvaha uvěřit - V zapadlém městečku Boone Creek se prý v noci objevují na hřbitově tajemná světla. Pro novináře Jeremyho Marshe, který vybudoval svou kariéru na nacházení racionálního vysvětlení paranormálních jevů, jsou podobné zprávy ideálním námětem na reportáž. Jeho objektivní přístup reportéra ale bere za své, když na místo přísné logiky nastoupí city. 3) Martin O'Brien: Jacquot a anděl - Když v poklidném provensálském městečku dojde hned k několikanásobné vraždě, je to pochopitelně událost, která rozvíří život všech starousedlíků. Zvlášť proto, že obětí je rodina německého lékaře, který zde žije již řadu let, a jak inspektor Daniel Jacquot brzy zjišťuje, řada místních obyvatel má dosud v živé paměti události druhé světové války. 4) John Grogan: Marley - Aby se připravili na rodičovskou zodpovědnost, rozhodli se Jenny a John Groganovi opatřit si psa. Labrador je podle odborníků ideálním psem pro začátečníky - vyrovnaný, neagresivní, inteligentní a vhodný pro výcvik. Marley, jak se štěně Groganových jmenovalo, byl sice mezi labradory výjimkou, ale jeho majitelé si rozhodně nemohli stěžovat na nudu.

LE PRIME AVVENTURE DI JACK REACHER: L’ATTO DI NASCITA DI UN GRANDE PROTAGONISTA DELLA NARRATIVA DI SUSPENSE, UN EROE SCHIVO E SOLITARIO DIVENTATO UNA VERA LEGGENDA Jack Reacher è un vero duro, un ex militare addestrato a pensare e ad agire con assoluta rapidità e determinazione, ma anche dotato di un profondo senso dell’onore e della giustizia. È di casa negli Stati Uniti, in tutti gli Stati Uniti, attraverso i quali si muove con libertà, ma possiede un talento del tutto particolare per trovarsi nel posto sbagliato al momento sbagliato. La cosa tuttavia non lo turba – d’altra parte c’è ben poco che possa turbarlo. Semmai ci sono molte cose, e molte persone, che lo infastidiscono: quello che non sopporta è l’ingiustizia e coloro che non tollera sono gli sbruffoni, i violenti, gli intriganti, i bugiardi, in una parola i cattivi. Se si rientra in questa categoria, è meglio non trovarlo sulla propria strada, o addirittura pestargli i piedi. Decisamente meglio…

Jack Reacher gerät zwischen die Fronten zweier Mafiaclans – ein schwarzer Tag für die Mafia … Der TOP-10-SPIEGEL-Bestseller! Jack Reacher reist ziellos in einem Greyhound-Bus durch die USA. Da beobachtet der ehemalige Militärpolizist, wie ein alter Mann, der gerade aus dem Bus gestiegen ist, überfallen wird. Reacher wäre nicht Reacher, wenn er tatenlos zusähe – er greift ein. Das Opfer ist verletzt, will ihn aber auf keinen Fall in diese Angelegenheit hineinziehen. Doch Reacher konnte noch nie wegsehen, wenn Schwächere Hilfe brauchten. Und so gerät er zwischen die Fronten zweier Mafia-Clans, die brutal um die Herrschaft über ihre Stadt ringen. Anfangs sehen die Verbrecher in dem Fremden noch keine Bedrohung. Doch dann erkennen sie, dass sie einem Mann wie Reacher noch nie begegnet sind. Dies ist der 24. Fall für Jack Reacher. Verpassen Sie nicht die anderen eigenständig lesbaren Romane wie zum Beispiel »Der Spezialist« und »Der Bluthund«. Kennen Sie auch schon den Story-Band »Der Einzelgänger«?

Brzy se ukáže, že za hranicemi města číhá vrah. 2) Martina Reillyová: Seznam přání - Dvanáctiletý Mark je plný pochybností a přeje si, aby všechno bylo jako dřív a mohli žít s mámou, tátou a bratrem jako šťastná rodina.

Hitching rides is an unreliable mode of transport. In temperatures of over a hundred degrees, you’re lucky if a driver will open the door of his air-conditioned car long enough to let you slide in. That’s Jack Reacher’s conclusion. He’s adrift in the fearsome heat of a Texas summer, and he needs to keep moving through the wide open vastness, like a shark in the water. The last thing he’s worried about is exactly who picks him up. He never expected it to be somebody like Carmen. She’s alone, driving a Cadillac. She’s beautiful, young and rich. She has a little girl who is being watched by unseen observers. And a husband who is in jail. Who will beat her senseless when he comes out. If he doesn’t kill her first. Reacher is no stranger to trouble. And at Carmen’s remote ranch in Echo County there is plenty of it: lies and prejudice, hatred and murder. Reacher can never resist a lady in distress. Her family is hostile. The cops can’t be trusted. The lawyers won’t help. If Reacher can’t set things straight, who can?

Chicago. Tijdens een doelloze wandeling ontmoet Jack Reacher een aantrekkelijke manke jonge vrouw die worstelt met een kruk en een pakket van de stomerij. Reacher helpt een handje, maar als ze zich omdraaien kijken ze recht in de loop van twee revolvers. Drieduizend kilometer later zitten ze vast in een geheim kamp in het uitgestrekte noorden van Montana. De vrouw zegt dat ze Holly Johnson heet en FBI-agent is. Holly heeft lef, ze is sterk, maar de doorgewinterde Reacher voelt dat er meer achter steekt.

Reacher udaremnia samobójczy zamach bombowy w metrze. Ale to dopiero początek jego kłopotów. Są oznaki, które pozwalają rozpoznać zamachowca-samobójcę. Izraelski wywiad sporządził ich listę dwanaście symptomów. Jack Reacher, jak każdy, kto kiedykolwiek miał do czynienia ze sprawami amerykańskiego bezpieczeństwa narodowego, zna ją na pamięć. Dlatego, jadąc w nocy nowojorskim metrem, zwraca uwagę na kobietę, która wydaje mu się idealną kandydatką na terrorystkę. Kiedy, chcąc zyskać na czasie, próbuje nawiązać z nią rozmowę, nieznajoma wyciąga pistolet i strzela sobie w głowę. Sprawą dziwnego samobójstwa Susan Mark, która jak się okazuje pracowała w Pentagonie, interesują się służby bezpieczeństwa. Ale nie tylko. Za informacje, które posiadała, niektórzy są gotowi zabijać. A Reacher staje się ich celem numer jeden.

Jack Reacher è un duro. Ex maggiore della polizia militare, giunto nell'assolato sudovest americano, in uno scenario affascinante, vorrebbe solo farsi un bicchiere in un bar. Ma la sfortuna è in agguato e Jack è costretto, ancora una volta, a battersi, cosa che sa fare molto bene. L'energumeno che l'ha assalito finisce con qualche osso rotto. La mattina successiva Jack vede arrivare al suo motel una macchina della polizia e, guarda caso, uno degli agenti a bordo è proprio il tipo che ha malmenato la sera prima. Jack fugge sperando di trovare qualcuno che gli offra un passaggio verso la salvezza. E, in realtà, una vecchia Cadillac si ferma. Al volante c'è Carmen Greer, un'affascinante messicana che non esita a farlo salire. E cominciano i guai. Carmen è disperata. Sloop, il marito violento che l'ha picchiata per anni, sta tornando a casa. In galera ce l'ha spedito lei, denunciandolo per frode fiscale. Ma l'uomo ha deciso di patteggiare denunciando a sua volta i soci nella frode e, una volta a casa, potrebbe picchiare di nuovo la moglie, forse anche ucciderla, se scoprisse la verità...
