Read by award-winning narrator Jeff Harding.

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

JACK REACHER NEVER LOOKS BACK . . . UNTIL NOW.

The present can be tense . . .

A young couple trying to get to New York City are stranded at a lonely motel in the middle of nowhere. Before long they're trapped in an ominous game of life and death.

But the past can be worse . . .

Meanwhile, Jack Reacher sets out on an epic road trip across America. He doesn't get far. Deep in the New England woods, he sees a sign to a place he has never been - the town where his father was born. But when he arrives he is told no one named Reacher ever lived there. Now he wonders: who's lying?

As the tension ratchets up and these two stories begin to entwine, the stakes have never been higher for Reacher.

That's for damn sure.

Although the Jack Reacher novels can be listened to in any order, Past Tense is the 23rd in the series.


'There's only one Jack Reacher. Accept no substitutes.' - Mick Herron.

โ€˜Jeff Hardingโ€™s [...] narration captures Reacherโ€™s character perfectly [...] you have to savour every minute.โ€™ The Sunday Times

Reviews

Absolutely loved Past Tense โ€“ Lee Child just gets better and better, which is a very rare quality in a writer of a long-run series. Whip smart, always compelling, always fun, he is dangerously addictive. Jack Reacher is today's James Bond, a thriller hero we can't get enough of I loved it. One of the best. Itโ€™s Lee Child. Why would you not read it? Sometimes you just want someone who can beat the s*** out of people! I pick up Jack Reacher when Iโ€™m in the mood for someone big to solve my problems Loved [Past Tense]! Nothing makes for a great weekend quite like quality time with Jack . Busy, bloody and ingenious One of the best...hits the mark perfectly. The pace picks up...the action becomes brutal, and we're led to an extremely satisfying conclusion...I'm becoming increasingly understanding of our appetite for fiction that features proper punishment for baddies. It's deeply comforting to escape into an imaginary world where we're all safe in Jack Reacher's gammon-joint sized hands. Expand reviews
