<b>#1 <i>NEW YORK TIMES</i> BESTSELLER</b><br> <b> </b><br> <b>“Compulsively readable.”—<i>The Wall Street Journal</i></b><br> <b> </b><br> <b>“Don’t pick up [this] Jack Reacher novel if you don’t have some time on your hands, because <i>Worth Dying For </i>is difficult to put down. . . . Child manages to get an amazing amount of suspense into the novel.”—Associated Press</b><br> <br> There’s deadly trouble in the corn county of Nebraska . . . and Jack Reacher walks right into it. First he falls foul of the Duncans, a local clan that has terrified an entire county into submission. But it’s the unsolved, decades-old case of a missing child that Reacher can’t let go.<br> <br> The Duncans want Reacher gone—and it’s not just past secrets they’re trying to hide. For as dangerous as the Duncans are, they’re just the bottom of a criminal food chain stretching halfway around the world. For Reacher, it would have made much more sense to put some distance between himself and the hard-core trouble that’s bearing down on him. For Reacher, that was also impossible.<br> <br> <b>“A model of suspenseful storytelling and an outstanding addition to a series that stands in the front rank of modern thrillers.”—<i>The Washington Post</i></b><br> <b> </b><br> <b>“Still the thinking man’s action hero, supreme butt-kicker and smartest guy in the room.”—<i>The Seattle Times</i></b><br> <b> </b><br> <b>“This series is about as good as pop fiction gets.”—<i>The Miami Herald</i></b>
