About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Published as an audiobook, a long short story from thriller master Lee Child about the teenage Reacher, now also available in No Middle Name: the Collected Jack Reacher Stories.

July 1977. Jack Reacher is almost seventeen, and he stops in New York on his way from South Korea to visit his brother at West Point. The summer heat is suffocating, fires are raging in the Bronx, the city is bankrupt, and the mad gunman known as Son of Sam is still on the loose.

Reacher meets a woman with a problem, and agrees to help her . . . and then the power grid fails and the lights go out, plunging the lawless city that never sleeps into chaos.

What does a visiting teenager do in the dark? If that visiting teenager is Jack Reacher, the answer is: plenty.

young reacher, new York gangsters, the son of Sam , a love interest not tedious unnecessary & transparent such as with most of the books in the series & an unexpected twist to finish ... all in a 2hr short! good work

action packed start to finish

Okay for a short story. Not worth a full credit wait until it is a low price so it won’t be bad for 5 chapters

Not bad
