Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Chicago. 1992. A hospital patient wakes to find two strangers by his bed.
They show him a list of names and ask a simple but impossible question. Minutes later he falls to his death from his twelfth-floor window - a fall which generates some unexpected attention.
That attention comes from the Secretary of Defense, who calls for an inter-agency task force to investigate. Jack Reacher, recently demoted from Major, is assigned as the Army's representative. If he gets a result, great. If not, he's a convenient fall guy.
Reacher may be an exceptional military investigator, but office politics aren't what gets him up in the morning. As he races to identify a cold-blooded killer and uncover a secret that stretches back 23 years, he must navigate around his new partners.
Will Reacher bring the bad guys to justice the official way...or his way?
Although the Jack Reacher novels can be listened to in any order, The Secret is the 28th book in the internationally bestselling series.

Meh… I think Reacher is done for…
Having been an avid Reacher reader I’m now not so excited when a new book comes out and this is why; bang-average plot, obvious twist, not much of the old Reacher style - I feel a bit like I’m being milked :o)

Too disjointed
Seems almost like 3 separate stories. Very disjointed. I think it’s obvious the ideas reservoir has run dry. Excellent performance by Jeff Harding as always.

Great
I thought this was up to the normal standard. The person who criticised the narrator obviously hasn’t listened to previous novels. I always look for Jeff Harding.

Very poor shadow of the original
Sadly the last two, in my opinion, have definitely been below par. Coupled with the dire, monotone voice of the worst narrator, I had to keep going back and re listen because I kept zoning out. Such a shame but I think this will be my last one

Much better
Things are looking up in brothers' dual authorship. Jeff Harding is again a brilliant narrator.

Short and less captivating but still good
Very short for a reacher book. Good performance by Jeff Harding as narrator as usual. However story seemed a little disjointed. Love the reacher series and look forward to the new releases just could of done with more action. Think if the action had been there would of packed the book out to a normal length. Liked the last two brothers collaborations just this let it down a little. But hay ho still a fan and you can’t win them all.

Brilliant Jack Reacher conclusion. I really enjoyed this book. It felt like the earlier ones. Well done Lee and Andrew

Still has The Secret sauce.
Jeff Harding's performance is perfect as always. The story itself? It's a little short and a little too straight forward. No mystery to figure out and the inevitable twist felt like an after thought, but overall it was another very enjoyable book.
