#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Determined to stop a rogue terrorist threat, Jack Reacher joins forces with Sergeant Frances Neagley—and the two must combine all their wits if they want to complete the mission alive.

Don’t miss the hit streaming series Reacher and the upcoming spinoff series Neagley!

“Another timely tour de force . . . The taut thriller is textbook [Lee] Child: fast-paced and topical with a ‘ripped from the headlines’ feel.”—Minneapolis Star-Tribune


It’s 1996, and Reacher is still in the army. In the morning they give him a medal, and in the afternoon they send him back to school. That night he’s off the grid. Out of sight, out of mind.

Two other men are in the classroom—an FBI agent and a CIA analyst. Each is a first-rate operator, each is fresh off a big win, and each is wondering what the hell they are doing there.

Then they find out: A Jihadist sleeper cell in Hamburg, Germany, has received an unexpected visitor—a Saudi courier, seeking safe haven while waiting to rendezvous with persons unknown. A CIA asset, undercover inside the cell, has overheard the courier whisper a chilling message: The American wants a hundred million dollars.”

For what? And who from? Reacher and his two new friends are told to find the American. Reacher recruits the best soldier he has ever worked with: Sergeant Frances Neagley. Their mission heats up in more ways than one, while always keeping their eyes on the prize: If they don’t get their man, the world will suffer an epic act of terrorism.

From Langley to Hamburg, Jalalabad to Kiev, Night School moves like a bullet through a treacherous landscape of double crosses, faked identities, and new and terrible enemies, as Reacher maneuvers inside the game and outside the law.

Once again, I enjoyed this flashback novel into Jack's military career. The story started a little slow, but quickly made up for it and had me till the end. #Audible1

Jack is back!

Always a read story from Lee Child. The time frame and the events in the book are more intense when you know what the future is going to bring. Thoroughly enjoyable. Love Dick Hill's voice.

Like all Lee Child books, this one was no different. It keeps you on your toes. The excitement keeps you going with each page -
the twists and turns make you want to keep reading, in spite of life interference ( making dinner etc. LOL.) Just as you think the team is going to catch Wiley some simple thing happens and Wiley slips through their fingers.The descriptions of the places and rounds that Reacher and Nagley are making are so real that you feel you are with them, but that is just Lee Child at his best.
Once you put one book down you can't wait to pick up the next one.
What made this audible book so real was Dick Hill. His narrative was also so real. I loved the way he chnaged the accents, the different voices for each indiviual, the differnce for each gender. Again, this made it so real. Waiting for the next one.
I used to be a big reader but I couldn't do 2 things at once, but with audible books this is the best multi tasking. I am glad I locked on to Audible.
