Synopsis
THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING JACK REACHER SERIES • Don&’t miss the hit streaming series Reacher! The ultimate Jack Reacher experience: a thrilling new novella and eleven previously published stories, together for the first time in one pulse-pounding collection from Lee Child. No Middle Name begins with &“Too Much Time,&” a brand-new work of short fiction that finds Reacher in a hollowed-out town in Maine, where he witnesses a random bag-snatching but sees much more than a simple crime. &“Small Wars&” takes readers back to 1989, when Reacher is an MP assigned to solve the brutal murder of a young officer found along an isolated forest road in Georgia—and whose killer may be hiding in plain sight. In &“Not a Drill,&” Reacher tries to take some downtime, but a pleasant hike in Maine turns into a walk on the wild side—and perhaps something far more sinister. &“High Heat&” time-hops to 1977, when Reacher is a teenager in sweltering New York City during a sudden blackout that awakens the dark side of the city that never sleeps. Okinawa is the setting of &“Second Son,&” which reveals the pivotal moment when young Reacher&’s sharp &“lizard brain&” becomes just as important as his muscle. In &“Deep Down,&” Reacher tracks down a spy by matching wits with four formidable females—three of whom are clean, but the fourth may prove fatal. Rounding out the collection are &“Guy Walks into a Bar,&” &“James Penney&’s New Identity,&” &“Everyone Talks,&” &“The Picture of the Lonely Diner,&” &“Maybe They Have a Tradition,&” and &“No Room at the Motel.&”No suitcase. No destination. No middle name. No matter how far Reacher travels off the beaten path, trouble always finds him. Feel bad for trouble. Praise for No Middle Name &“Captivating . . . classic [Lee] Child . . . This volume demonstrates what his fans already know: he&’s a born storyteller and an astute observer.&”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) &“Lee Child, like his creation, always knows exactly what he&’s doing—and he does it well. Time in his company is never wasted.&”—Evening Standard
