Sein wahres Gesicht

Lee Child was born in the English Midlands, studied law, and then spent twenty years in television, where he oversaw high-quality thriller series such as "Prime Suspect" and "Cracker." In 1995, he turned his back on the television world and England, moved to the USA, and achieved international bestseller status with his first Jack Reacher thriller. Since then, he has captivated his fans with a continuous stream of thrilling Reacher novels. He has received several prestigious awards, including the "Anthony Award," the most esteemed prize for suspense literature.

Deep sorrow and heightened vigilance lead Jack Reacher, the brilliant former investigator, to attend the funeral of his former superior and fatherly friend at the military police, Leon Garber. Why did Garber have him searched for under his daughter Jodie's name after so many years? And what does she, Jack's unfulfilled great love, have to do with it? Jodie, stunningly beautiful and a clever lawyer, is also faced with a mystery. It is only the unpleasant encounter with killers and mutilated bodies that puts the two on a hot trail and in the crosshairs of the murderers. "Intelligent, explosive, and nerve-wrackingly thrilling! An incredibly good plot!" Time Out "The best thriller I've read in years!" New Statesman "A brilliantly crafted, highly sophisticated plot with stunning characters. Impossible to put this thriller down!" Publishers Weekly.
