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 jumps off a bus and walks fourteen miles down a country road into Margrave, Georgia. An arbitrary decision he's about to regret. Reacher is the only stranger in town on the day they have had their first homicide in thirty years.

The cops arrest Reacher and the police chief turns eyewitness to place him at the scene. As nasty secrets leak out, and the body count mounts, one thing is for sure. They picked the wrong guy to take the fall.

Although the Jack Reacher novels can be listened to in any order, Killing Floor is the first audiobook in the internationally popular series. It presents Reacher for the first time, as the tough ex-military cop of no fixed abode: a righter of wrongs, the perfect action hero.

"This was the first Jack Reacher novel and with its lean, spare prose it has one of the most intriguing heroes of our times and displays a gift for explosive drama." (Daily Express)

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

First time I've listened to a book, didn't think I could enjoy it, but I did!! comes into its own when you're driving or pottering about. I've loved Lee Child books for years and I'm sure I've read this one before but enjoyed again. Reacher is the man!!

Super-exciting story with that great revenge element. Baddies get their just desserts in this book for sure. Well read with great voice characterisation. And there are 21 more Jack Reacher stories!

He made the biggest assumptions and that made the book slightly hard to stay thrilled, but being thrilled was still relatively easy

Reacher is too quessing in this book

The story is very cool. It was mentioned by BBC so I searched for it, I just had a taste for thriller, thought I could give it a try, never thought I would get hooked by it. I finished it probably in less than three days in total. But the end was kind of sad in some way, it does make me think that this is very similar to a bond story. But it does made me more knowledgeable about the geography of the United States.

Totally Hooked
