Everything starts somwehere.  For elite military cop Jack Reacher, that somewhere was Carter Crossing, Mississippi, way back in 1997.

Reacher is ordered undercover to investigate the murder of a young woman.  Evidence points to a U.S. soldier with powerful friends.  Once in Carter Crossing, Reacher meets local sheriff Elizabeth Deveraux, who has a thirst for justice and an appetite for secrets.  Uncertain they can trust each other, they reluctantly join forces.  Reacher works to uncover the truth, while others try to bury it forever.  The conspiracy threatens to  shatter his faith in the mission - and turn him into a man to be feared.

From a helicopter high above the California desert, a man is sent free-falling into the night.  On the streets of Portland, Jack Reacher is pulled out of his wandering life and plunged into the heart of a conspiracy that is killing old friends... and the people he once trusted with his life.

Reacher is the ultimate loner - no phone, no ties, no address.  But a woman from his old military unit has found him using a signal only the eight members of their elite team would know.  Then she tells him a terrifying story about the brutal death of a man they both served with.  Soon Reacher is reuniting with the survivors of his team, scrambling to unravel the sudden disappearance of two other comrades.  But Reacher won't give up - because in a world of bad luck and trouble, when someone targets Jack Reacher and his team, they'd better be ready for what comes right back at them.

Two Childs are
even better than one."
- JAMES PATTERSON

Jack Reacher is back in a brand-new page-turning thriller from acclaimed
#1 bestselling authors Lee Child and Andrew Child.

Reacher goes where he wants, when he wants.  That morning he was heading west, walking under the merciless desert sun - until he comes upon a curious scene.  A
Jeep has crashed into the only tree for miles around.  A woman is slumped over the wheel.

The woman is Michaela Fenton, an army veteran turned FBI agent trying to find her twin brother, who might be mixed up with some dangerous people.  The mysterious Dendoncker rules from the shadows, out of sight and under the radar, keeping his dealings in the dark.

Reacher is good at finding people who don't want to be found.  And a life hangs in the balance.  Maybe more than one.  But to bring Dendoncker down will be the riskiest job of Reacher's life.  Failure is not an option, because in this kind of game, the loser is always better off dead.

"Superb... Smart writing, vivid action scenes, and dramatic twists mark this seamless effort.  Even those for whom this is their first Reacher novel will be clamoring for more."

The odds are against him. But Reacher believes in a certain kind of justice... the kind that comes along once in a blue moon.

A New York Times Bestseller and Goodreads Choice Awards Finalist!

Legendary storyteller Stephen King goes into the deepest well of his imagination in this spellbinding novel about a seventeen-year-old boy who inherits the keys to a parallel world where good and evil are at war, and the stakes could not be higher—for that world or ours.

Charlie Reade looks like a regular high school kid, great at baseball and football, a decent student. But he carries a heavy load. His mom was killed in a hit-and-run accident when he was seven, and grief drove his dad to drink. Charlie learned how to take care of himself—and his dad. When Charlie is seventeen, he meets a dog named Radar and her aging master, Howard Bowditch, a recluse in a big house at the top of a big hill, with a locked shed in the backyard. Sometimes strange sounds emerge from it.

Charlie starts doing jobs for Mr. Bowditch and loses his heart to Radar. Then, when Bowditch dies, he leaves Charlie a cassette tape telling a story no one would believe. What Bowditch knows, and has kept secret all his long life, is that inside the shed is a portal to another world.

King’s storytelling in Fairy Tale soars. This is a magnificent and terrifying tale in which good is pitted against overwhelming evil, and a heroic boy—and his dog—must lead the battle.

Early in the Pandemic, King asked himself: “What could you write that would make you happy?”

“As if my imagination had been waiting for the question to be asked, I saw a vast deserted city—deserted but alive. I saw the empty streets, the haunted buildings, a gargoyle head lying overturned in the street. I saw smashed statues (of what I didn’t know, but I eventually found out). I saw a huge, sprawling palace with glass towers so high their tips pierced the clouds. Those images released the story I wanted to tell.”

"Hold on tight....  This novel will give you whiplash as you rabidly turn pages....  May be [Lee Child's] best."

New York City.  Two in the morning.  A subway car heading uptown.  Jack Reacher, plus five other passengers.  Four are okay.  The fifth isn't.  And if you think Reacher isn't going to get involved... then you don't know Jack.

"Propulsive...  [Child is] an expert at ratcheting up tension."
- Los Angeles Times

Susan Mark, the fifth passenger, had a big secret, and her plain little life was being watched in Washington, and California, and Afghanistan - by dozens of people with one thing in common: They're all lying to Reacher.  A little.  A lot.  Or just enough to get him killed.  A race has begun through the streets of Manhattan, a maze crowded with violent, skilled soldiers on all sides of a shadow war.  For Jack Reacher, a man who trusts no one and likes it that way, the finish line comes when you finally get face-to-face and look your worst enemy in the eye.

Ex-military policeman Jack Reacher is a drifter.  He's just passing through Margrave, Georgia, and in less than an hour, he's arrested for murder.  Not much of a welcome.  All Reacher knows is that he didn't kill anybody.  At least not here.  Not lately.  But he doesn't stand a chance of convincing anyone.  Not in Margrave, Georgia.  Not a chance in hell.

"[A] classic Jack Reacher tale...
compelling and moving."
-Associated Press

Reacher takes a stroll through a small Wisconsin town and sees a class ring in a pawn shop window: West Point 2005.  A tough year to graduate: Iraq, then Afghanistan.  The ring is tiny, for a woman, and it has her initials engraved on the inside.  Reacher wonders what unlucky circumstance made her give up something she earned over four hard years.  He decides to find out.  And find the woman.  And return her ring.  Why not?

So begins a harrowing journey that takes Reacher through the upper Midwest, from a lowlife bar on the sad side of a small town to a dirt-blown crossroads in the middle of nowhere.

The deeper Reacher digs and the more he learns, the more dangerous the terrain becomes.  Turns out the ring was just a small link in a far darker chain: a vast criminal enterprise.  Some lines should never be crossed.  But then, neither should Reacher.

- Associated Press

Former military cop Jack Reacher has arrived at the headquarters of the 110th MP, his old unit near Washington, D.C., the closest thing to a home he's ever had.  He's there to meet - in person - the new commanding officer, Major Susan Turner, so far just a warm, intriguing voice on the phone.  But Turner isn't there and Reacher is shocked to be charged with a crime with serious consequences.

When threatened, you can run or fight.

Reacher fights, aiming to find Turner and clear his name, barely a step ahead of the army, and the FBI, and the D.C. Metro police, and four unidentified thugs.  It is a race for the truth that will make Reacher question who he is, what he's done, and the very future of his untethered life on the open road.

Reacher and his two new friends are told to find that American.  Reacher recruits the best soldier he has ever worked with: Sergeant Frances Neagley.  Their mission heats up in more ways than one, while always keeping their eyes on the prize:  If they don't get their man, the world will suffer an epic act of terrorism.

The gripping new Jack Reacher thriller from
the #1 New York Times bestselling author
Lee Child and Andrew Child

In Gerrardsville, Colorado, a woman dies under the wheels of a moving bus.  The death is ruled a suicide.  But Jack Reacher saw what really happened: A man in a gray hoodie and jeans, moving stealthily, pushed the victim to her demise before swiftly grabbing the dead woman's purse and strolling away.

When another homicide is ruled an accident, Reacher knows this is no coincidence.  With a killer on the loose, Reacher has no time to waste to track down those responsible.  But he is unaware that these crimes are part of something much larger and more far-reaching: an arsonist out for revenge, a foster kid on the run, a cabal of powerful people involved in a secret conspiracy with many moving parts.  There is no room for error, but they make a grave one.  They don't consider Reacher a threat.  "There's too much at stake to start running from shadows."  But Reacher isn't a shadow.  He is flesh and blood.  And relentless when it comes to making things right.

For when the threat is Reacher, there is No Plan B.

"No Plan B is not to be missed: a perfectly plotted, fast-paced thriller, with bigger twists than ever before.  It's no wonder Jack Reacher is everyone's favorite rebel hero."
- KARIN SLAUGHTER

They're picking on the wrong guy.

Reacher is a hard man.  No job, no address, no baggage.  Nothing at all, except hardheaded curiosity.  What are the secrets that Despair seems so desperate to hide?

"Colossal.  Earthshaking.  Stupendous...  Jack Reacher is one of the most enduring action heroes on the American landscape."

And sure enough, ex-military investigator Jack Reacher is coming.  He knows this shooter - a trained military sniper who never should have missed a shot.  Reacher is certain something is not right - and soon the slam-dunk case explodes.

Now Reacher is teamed with a beautiful young defense lawyer, moving closer to the unseen enemy who is pulling the strings.  Reacher knows that no two opponents are created equal.  This one has come to the heartland from his own kind of hell.  And Reacher knows that the only way to take him down is to match his ruthlessness and cunning and then beat him shot for shot.

IN 1980 a freshman congreeman was gunned down in Rhode Island, sending shockwaves through Washington that are still reverberating more than four decades later.

Now with the world on the brink of war and a weakened United States facing rampant inflation, political division, and shocking assassinations, a secret cabal of global elites is ready to assume control.  And with the world's most dangerous man locked in solitary confinement, the conspirators believe the final obstacle to complete domination has been eliminated.  They're wrong.

With the odds stacked against him, James Reece is on a mission generations in the making.  Unfortunately for his enemies, the former SEAL is not concerned with odds.  He is on the warpath.  And when James Reece picks up his tomahawk and sniper rifle, no one is out of range.

Jack Reacher sticks out this thumb and starts an epic trip across America from Maine to California.  But he doesn't get far.  On a country road deep in the New Hampshire woods, he sees a sign to a place he has never been: the town where his father was born.  He thinks, What's one extra day?  He takes a detour.  At the same moment, not far way, two young Canadians are trying to get to New York City when their car breaks down near a lonely motel.  The owners of the strange establishment seem almost too friendly.  As Reacher explores his father's life, and as strands of different sotries begin to merge, he makes a shocking discovery:  The present can be tough, but the past can be tense... and deadly.

If anyone can stop Kott, it's the man who beat him before: Jack Reacher.  And though he'd rather work alone, Reacher is teamed with rookie analyst Casey Nice.  They're facing a rough road, full of local thugs, doube-crosses, and no backup if things go wrong.  Reacher never gets too close.  But this time it's personal.

"Yet another satisfying page-turner."

"A page-turner... [Lee] Child's tale drives hard and fast."
- Los Angeles Times Book Review

Jack Reacher lives for the moment.  Without a home.  Without commitment.  And with a burning desire to right wrongs - and rewrite his own agonizing past.  DEA agent Susan Duffy is living for the future, knowing that she has made a terrible mistake by putting one of her own female agents into a death trap within a heavily guarded Maine mansion.

Staging a brilliant ruse, Reacher hurtles into the dark heart of a vast criminal enterprise.  Trying to rescue an agent whose time is running out, Reacher enters a crime lord's waterfront fortress.  There he will find a world of secrecy and violence - and confront some unfinished business from his own past.

"Gripping and suspensful...  Child ratchets up the suspense to new heights."

"Wickedly addictive... so fast-paced it makes the eyeballs spin."

#1 New York Times bestselling master of suspense Dean Koontz takes a surprising and exhilarating road trip with a man in pursuit of his strange past - mile by frightening mile.

Quinn Quicksilver was born a mystery - abandoned at three days old on a desert highway in Arizona.  Raised in an orphanage, never knowing his parents, Quinn had a happy if unexceptional life.  Until the day of "strange magnetism."  It compelled him to drive out to the middle of nowhere.  It helped him find a coin worth a lot of money.  And it practically saved his life when two government agents showed up in the diner in pursuit of him.  Now Quinn is on the run from those agents and who knows what else, fleeing for his life.

During a shoot-out at a forlorn dude ranch, he finally meets his destined companions: Bridget Rainking, a beauty as gifted in foresight as she is with firearms, and her grandpa Sparky, a romance novelist with an unusual past Bridget knows what it's like to be Quinn.  She's hunted, too.  The only way to stay alive is to keep moving.

Barreling through the Sonoran Desert, the formidable trio is impelled by that same inexplicable magnetism toward the inevitable.  With every deeply disturbing mile, something sinister is in the rearview - an enemy that is more than a match for Quinn.  Even as he discovers within himself resources that are every bit as scary.

THE GRIPPING NEW JACK REACHER THRILLER FROM THE #1 NEW YORK
TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHORS LEE CHILD AND ANDREW CHILD

1992.  All across the United States respectable, upstanding citizens are showing up dead.  These deaths could be accidents, and they don't appear to be connected - until a fatal fall from a high-floor window attracts some unexpected attention.

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.  Three questions quickly emerge: Who's with him, who's against him, and will the justice he dispenses be the official kind... or his own kind?

"One of the many great things about Jack Reacher is that he's larger than life while remaining relatable and believable.  The Sentinel shows that two Childs are even better than one."
- JAMES PATTERSON

As always, Reacher has no particular place to go, and all the time in the world to get there.  One morning he ends up in a town near Pleasantville, Tennessee.

But there's nothing pleasant about the place.

In broad daylight Reacher spots a hapless soul walking into an ambush.  "It was four against one"... so Reacher intervenes, with his own trademark brand of conflict resolution.

The man he saves is Rusty Rutherford, an unassuming IT manager, recently fired after a cyberattack locked up the town's data, records, information... and secrets.  Rutherford wants to stay put, look innocent, and clear his name.

Reacher is intrigued.  There's more to the story.  The bad guys who jumped Rutherford are part of something serious and deadly, involving a conspiracy, a cover-up, and murder - all centered on a mousy little guy in a coffee-stained shirt who has no idea what he's up against.

Rule one: If you don't know the trouble you're in, keep Reacher by your side.

"Classic Reacher, great story.  Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant.  I do love the spare writing style, the descriptions, Reacher's responses to threats.  Joyous stuff.  I hope there will be many more Reachers to come."
- CONN IGGULDEN

"Terrific... powerful... Brutal action mixes with keen-eyed detective work as Reacher metes out his own brand of justice....  If this novel is a harbinger of what's to come, then Jack is in good hands."
