Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Read by award-winning narrator Jeff Harding.


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

For Jack Reacher, being invisible has become a habit.

He spends his days digging swimming pools by hand and his nights as the bouncer in a local strip club in the Florida Keys.

He doesn't want to be found.

But someone has sent a private detective to seek him out. Then Reacher finds the guy beaten to death with his fingertips sliced off. It's time to head north and work out who is trying to find him and why.


‘If the final pages of this story don’t make your heart race, then you might want to make sure your heart is still working.’ KARIN SLAUGHTER

'Lee Child continues his meteoric rise and mastery of suspense with Tripwire. It's a tightly-drawn and swift thriller that gives new meaning to what a page-turner should be.' MICHAEL CONNELLY

'A slickly effective thriller which confirms Child's ability to keep the reader guessing - and sweating.' THE TIMES

Although the Jack Reacher novels can be listened to in any order, Tripwire is the third in the series.

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

Not my favorite Reacher

This Reacher was good if you can get past the not so good bits. There feels like a lot of ramble and the romance setup feels clumsy. The action, as always, is great, but I did feel like I was working hard to finish this one.

Utter drawn-out disappointment

Struggled to finish. Where I enjoyed the other Reacher books, this one turn tension into drawn-out boredom

Not his best.

A typical Reacher but the ending felt really rushed. There were several characters who were right throughout the book and at the end you heard nothing about them. The ending was less realistic than usual, with the police effectively ignoring a trail of damage and dead bodies because 2 police officers had been killed. I doubt they have that much leeway ito overlook things. Resulted in a sloppy unfinished feel.

Narrarated like a baseball game play by play.

Narrator was awful. Couldn't wait till the end to review. I'll try to keep listening for the sake of the story.

Could not finish

Could not finish this book.
Main character is portrayed as clever guy, but behave as a not very bright guy.
Most of the plot is clear from the start of the book
