  • "March 1997. A woman has her throat cut behind a bar in Carter Crossing, Mississippi. Just down the road is a big army base. Is the murderer a local guy - or is he a soldier? Jack Reacher, still a major in the military police, is sent in undercover. The county sheriff is a former U.S. Marine - and a stunningly beautiful woman. Her investigation is going nowhere. Is the Pentagon stonewalling her? Or doesn't she really want to find the killer? If he does what the army wants, will he be able to live with himself? And if he doesn't, will the army be able to live with him? Is this his last case in uniform?"

  • "Bestselling thriller writer Lee Child's 1997 debut novel Killing Floor, starring tough but humane maverick Jack Reacher, was an immediate success, winning the mystery writer's Anthony Award and launching an electrifying series. "Until Reacher runs low on grit, make-my-day wisecracks and loner mystique, he will be one of the most enduring action heroes on the American landscape," writes Janet Maslin in the New York Times. Selling globally at a rate of one every five seconds, the success of these books rests partly on the hulking shoulders of their charismatic hero, but also on Child steadily cranking out at least one tight, spellbinding book per year. The sixteeenth in the series, The Affair takes place six months before the events of Killing Floor."
  • "Ever wonder how Reacher became "Reacher?" This prequel to the series answeres that. Carter Crossing, Mississippi. 1997. A lonely railroad track. A crime scene. A coverup. A young woman is dead, and solid evidence points to a soldier at a nearby military base. But that soldier has powerful friends in Washington. Reacher is ordered undercover - to find out everything he can, to control the local police, and then to vanish."
