The Sentinel

(Jack Reacher 25)




The edge-of-your-seat, heart-in-mouth new Jack Reacher thriller - his 25th adventure. No one's bigger than Jack Reacher.

The edge-of-your-seat, heart-in-mouth new Jack Reacher thriller for 2021 - his 25th adventure. No one's bigger than Jack Reacher. Shortlisted for Book of the Year - The British Book Awards.

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.

The town has been shut down by a cyber attack. At the centre of it all, whether
he likes it or not, is Rusty Rutherford. He's an average IT guy, but he knows more than he thinks.

As the bad guys move in on Rusty, Reacher moves in on them . . .

And now Rusty knows he's protected, he's never going to leave the big man's side.

Reacher might just have to stick around and find out what the hell's gone wrong . . . and then put it right, like only he can.

Praise for The Sentinel

The Sentinel shows that two Childs are even better than one.

James Patterson

Fresh, perfectly plotted, and packed with action, The Sentinel is one of the year's best, must-read thrillers . . . and proves that this series is primed to continue on at the highest level for many years to come.

The Real Book Spy

I loved The Sentinel! Classic Reacher, great story. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant.

Conn Iggulden

Lots of action . . . one of the most inventive action sequences in recent memory . . . [The Sentinel] continues the series without any sense that there's now a coauthor. In a year of drastic change, fans will welcome the consistency.

Publishers Weekly

It's great to be back in Reacher's company in a world where the bad guys get what's coming to them. A smooth transition for a much-loved character.

Observer

If this novel is a harbinger of what's to come, then Jack is in good hands.

Booklist

The one man revenge machine seems revitalised. Great stuff.

Sun

Thoroughly entertaining . . . when the world is crumbling, it's good to have some of Reacher's brutal certainties back.

The Times

The Sentinel is a butt-kicking, take-no-prisoners thriller that satisfies on every page.

The Providence Journal

The collaboration here produces vintage Reacher.

Financial Times

Reacher is satisfyingly ice cold in combat and full of good human feelings when necessary. It works.

Literary Review

The family firm is in decent hands
