Lee
Child
Published 28
August 2015; Bantam Press; RRP $38.00
The new Lee Child is always one of the most explosive highlights of the
publishing year.
Make
Me, his pacy, nail biting new Jack Reacher thriller is sure to be one of
his most addictive yet.
Reacher
has no place to go, and all the time in the world to get there, so a remote railroad stop on the prairie with the curious name
of Mother’s Rest seems perfect for an aimless one-day stopover.
He
expects to find a lonely pioneer tombstone in a sea of nearly-ripe wheat ...
but instead there is a woman waiting for a missing colleague, a cryptic
note about two hundred deaths, and a small town full of silent, watchful
people.
Reacher’s
one-day stopover becomes an open-ended quest...into the heart of darkness.
Prepare
to be nailed to your seat by another hair-raising,
heart-pounding adventure from the kick ass master of the thriller genre!
