About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Read by award-winning narrator Jeff Harding.


**NOW A MAJOR PRIME TV SERIES STARRING ALAN RITCHSON**

Jack Reacher, alone, strolling nowhere. A Chicago street in bright sunshine. A young woman, struggling on crutches. Reacher offers her a steadying arm.

And turns to see a handgun aimed at his stomach.

Chained in a dark van racing across America, Reacher doesn't know why they've been kidnapped. The woman claims to be FBI. She's certainly tough enough. But at their remote destination, will raw courage be enough to overcome the hopeless odds?

Although the Jack Reacher novels can be read in any order, Die Trying is the 2nd in the series.

'Cunning, explosive . . . A thumping good read.' Time Out

‘Jeff Harding’s [...] narration captures Reacher’s character perfectly [...] you have to savour every minute.’

Great audiobook, but marred by over-frequent use of "He Said...She Said, etc." by the narrator. I am so distracted by this. It is difficult to enjoy as much as may have been.

Lee Child's second Reacher novel is a nice change of gear from The Killing Floor.
The narration is solid, but I wish that the narrator would stop trying to put a 'female' tone and inflection to the female characters in the story. It comes across poorly and I found it distracting. Child's writing leaves the reader with no doubt as to which character is speaking, and when do there's is no need to put on, what comes across often as a simpering tone. Accents are fine, I just don't think there is a need for gender-based inflections.
Otherwise this was a cracking adventure thriller, well told and gripping.
I look forward to the remainder 👍

A few clichés - Reacher = smart. Baddies = dumb. Narrator = annoying voice.

Reacher is badass (as usual).

Another great book from Lee Child on Jack Reacher.
Jeff Harding once again brings Reacher to life, his pacing and tone are brilliant.

A Wow !
