Get ready because on October 22, 2024, Jack Reacher—everyone’s favorite justice-seeking nomad—returns in In Too Deep, the latest must-read novel from #1 New York Times bestselling authors Lee Child and Andrew Child.
Season 2 of Amazon’s Reacher (which loosely follows Child’s 2007 novel Back Luck and Trouble) is wrapping up, which means that fans will likely have to wait a year or so for more episodes of the acclaimed Alan Ritchson-led series. Thankfully, readers will have a new Jack Reacher novel to help fill the void once In Too Deep finally hits bookstores this fall. Book fans may recall that Reacher was last seen (in print, anyway) in The Secret, which isn’t exactly a prequel but does follow a younger Reacher with a story set in the early 1990s. In Too Deep will be the twenty-ninth book in Lee Child’s mega-popular series and the fifth co-authored by Andrew, his younger brother, who first signed on to help write The Sentinel in 2020.
Check out the plot details below.
The gripping new Jack Reacher thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling authors Lee Child and Andrew Child
Reacher wakes up, alone, in the dark, handcuffed to a bed in a makeshift hospital room. His few possessions are gone. He has no memory of getting there. The last thing he can recall is the car he had hitched a ride in getting run off the road. The driver was killed. The people who staged the attack assume Reacher was the driver’s accomplice and patch up his wounds as they plan to make him talk. A plan that will backfire spectacularly.
Lee Child is the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Jack Reacher series and the complete Jack Reacher story collection, No Middle Name. Foreign rights in the Reacher series have sold in one hundred territories. A native of England and a former television director, Lee Child lives in New York City and Wyoming.
Andrew Child, who also writes as Andrew Grant, is the author of RUN, False Positive, False Friend, False Witness, Invisible, and Too Close to Home. Child and his wife, the novelist Tasha Alexander, live on a wildlife preserve in Wyoming. He is the #1 bestselling co-author of the Jack Reacher novels The Sentinel, Better Off Dead, No Plan B, and The Secret.
