Reacher has still got it! He was my Man of the Year in 1997 when he first debuted. Now, in 2024, he still is going strong. I am looking forward to his next adventure. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the complimentary ARC. This review contains my own thoughts and words.

A car is run off the road with Jack Reacher in it, having apparently hitch-hiked a ride as is his normal way of travel. The driver is dead, and when he wakes up, he is strapped to a bed with a broken arm and no memory of what has happened. Miraculously (of course), he manages to escape and comes in contact with another man claiming to be an FBI agent. But is he really an agent? When he also comes in contact with yet another law officer (female, of course) who has gone rogue to avenge the death of her father, the situation becomes clear - there are some really bad guys doing some really bad things - the worst of which is selling secret information to some foreign entities. Reacher uses a limited amount of information to discern what is really going on and must use his strength (superhuman?) and amazing intellect to get to the bottom of the situation.

This is the 29th book in the Jack Reacher series, originally authored by Lee Child. Books 25-28 were then co-authored by Lee and his younger brother Andrew (who also writes under the name of Andrew Grant). This is the first book written by Andrew alone (with at least 3 more under contract). While this was the typical Jack Reacher persona - traveling around the country with no home, somehow finding himself in the midst of circumstances that require his unique skills (both brain and muscle), and overcoming odds stacked heavily against him, it just didn’t have the “oomph” that we have become used to over the years. The book just seemed to rumble along until the last few chapters when things finally came together. I am not ready to give up on the series yet - let’s give Andrew a chance to work out the kinks in his taking over. My thanks to Delacorte Press and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review the ARC of this book.

Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book. I have read some of this series and seen the shows. Jack Reacher is the ultimate crime fighter. His journey always keeps you on the edge of your seat and In Too Deep is no exception. In the beginning, he wakes up pinned down and in a dark place and he remembers nothing. And you know Reacher, he gets loose and starts this new journey to find out the rest of the story and to make someone pay. Will Reacher remember what happened and will they pay for what they have done to him and others? So if you want an exciting story, this is the book for you. I really enjoy the Reacher books.

Great Reacher book. This was one of the more interesting of the many Reacher books. Reacher is with a bunch of bad guys and gets in a car crash with one of them, then gets saved by another, and you're never sure who the bad guys are and who the good guys are, and of course, Reacher figures it all out. Good book. Highly recommend.

Let me say at the outset that I've loved Jack Reacher for years (in the books, I hasten to add, of which this is the 29th). This one is not my favorite - maybe by half a country mile - but I stayed up past my bedtime to polish it off nonetheless.

Mostly, I guess, I just didn't warm up to any of the overabundance of characters - probably because it was a little hard to tell the good guys and gals from the bad. And for some reason, Reacher himself seemed a little "off" - but then, if I'd lost a chunk of my recent memory on top of trying to do my usual super-human feats with a broken wrist, I guess I'd be a little cranky as well. The wrist, in fact, is where it begins; Reacher wakes up tethered to a table in an unknown location. In typical Reacher fashion, he manages to get free - but he has no recollection of how he got to be where he is. So when a man arrives and shows him he's survived a car accident in the Ozarks during which an FBI agent was killed, Reacher decides, at least for the time being, to believe him.

But of course, not everyone is who they claim to be, and chapter perspective shifts let readers in on what's going on behind Reacher's back. Along the way, Reacher meets up with a disgraced female agent who's on the trail of the man she claims murdered her father - who, as it turns out, is directly connected to characters who are causing headaches for Reacher as well. Joining forces, then, is a no-brainer - especially since she's a computer whiz while Reacher remains a troglodyte when it comes to technology (although it amazes me how much he knows about it even though he doesn't even own a cell phone).

Needless to say, what they learn along the way turns out to be a huge threat to the American way of life, and as expected, saving our skins depends on Reacher learning the truth before the other side does. The fun - and action - is in the getting there, and trust me, there's plenty of it from start to finish. Another good installment, and I thank the publisher, via NetGalley, for allowing me to read and review a pre-release copy.

Reacher awakes, injured, handcuffed and having no idea where he is. What exactly has he stepped into this time.
The 29th installment of the Jack Reacher series has him once again alone and on the road. The premise felt a bit manufactured, and with Reacher’s injury and concussion the story seemed to move slower than normal. It just didn’t feel like the Jack Reacher than I’ve become accustomed to. Despite that, the storyline was unique and did keep me turning the pages.
As the authors transition from Lee Child to Andrew Child, I will have to accept that there may be a transition in Reacher as well.

The 29th adventure thriller finds Reacher strapped to a table with no memory of how he got there. Pretty decent plot that involves plenty of bad guys and various law enforcement agencies with lots of action and excitement. A quick, absorbing read.

Many thanks to the authors ands publisher for providing me with an arc of this new thriller via NetGalley. My review is voluntary and the opinions expressed are my own.

Another interesting installment to the Jack Reacher series.
I’ve been a fan since the beginning but when Mr Child started collaborating with Andrew Child you can tell the difference
I do enjoy the twists and turns and the overall way Jack always finds a way out.
In In Too Deep he’s injured from the beginning which makes everything more difficult and slows him down. He’s going to need all his intelligence to get out of this and find out what exactly happened.
But Jack nobody stops Jack.


Thank you #netgalley #delacortepress #intoodeep for this ARC

I enjoy reading Jack Reacher books, but this one seemed a little slower. Overall, however, a good book of action!

I have really enjoyed all the Reacher books. They are such a fun read and Reacher is such a cool character. This one was a little bit of a slow burn but overall, I enjoyed it!

This gripping story finds Jack Reacher in the middle of a group of art thieves who’ve decided it’s more lucrative to sell government secrets to the highest bidder. Along with a detective bent on revenge and with a little help from the FBI, he uses his brains and his well-hone fighting skills to attempt to stop the bad guys. It’s a gripping tale that kept me intrigued till the very end.

I first began reading Lee Child's Jack Reacher novels 27 years ago with the publication of his maiden effort "The Killing Floor" and was immediately taken by the author's formula, which involved a forcibly retired career Army criminal investigator with a very strong personal moral code and an insatiable curiosity to explore the country he'd spent most of his life were defending, but never got to spend much time in. This conceit allowed Child wide latitude to send his knight errant anywhere to encounter wrongs in need of correcting by means of Reacher's kind of "good trouble". This is potentially a formula that could get stale over time, but by virtue of Reacher's wanderlust and strong moral compass, it remains not only viable but vibrant, even. 29 volumes into the series. This time we join Reacher after he's been kidnapped with no recollection of why or how. In the midst of sorting how the how and why of that (and administering his own personal .measure of justice he realizes he's stumbled into something much more sinister and deadly and even more in need of the Reacher way of setting things right than he's ever encountered before. But, as always, Reacher makes sure that his exhilarating brand of justice prevails.

I love Jack and his many escapades he gets himself into. The book didn’t seem to start off like they usually do though. I had trouble keeping up with the characters and what was really going on. It was an ok read for me but I miss the previous Jack.

I am a huge Reacher fan! But In Too Deep didn’t cut it fir me. Reacher was his usual gem but I couldn’t get into the scenario and really didn’t care about any of the characters. The last 25% of book was much more fun to read.

I don't want to give too much away but I was really disappointed in this book. I read books by both Lee Child and Andrew Grant and they have very different writing styles. Andrew, is very succinct and terse. I don't think Reacher was built for that style of writing.

The plot was just ok. It just sort of threw you in right away with no build up so it was hard to get into the characters. Also, Reacher is no Travis McGee, he doesn't have to bed a woman in every port.

In Too Deep by Lee Child and Andrew Child is the very highly recommended 29th installment of the popular action thriller series featuring Jack Reacher.

Jack Reacher wakes up handcuffed to a table. He has a broken wrist, double vision, a headache, and memory loss concerning what happened to him. One thing is for sure, whoever is responsible will pay. Lessons are taught to the man guarding him and then Reacher proceeds to look for an exit. He runs into a man named Ivan Vidic, who tells Reacher what is happening and then offers him a fortune to help him in a double-cross of the people running this particular operation. Reacher agrees, but for his own reasons.

Expect an entertaining, action-packed, complex plot with Reacher using his super-human powers of deduction to stay multiple steps ahead of everyone else while assessing the situation. Even injured, he retains his incredible strength and ability to fight. There is help from a female suspended law enforcement officer who is following one of the players in this gang. (She demonstrates the obvious fact that it is probably time for Reacher to at least get a cell phone.) There is plenty of coffee, pie, and sandwiches plus an unexpected twist at the end.

In Too Deep will hold your attention right from the start. This is everything you look for in a Reacher novel. Thanks to Random House for providing me with an advance reader's copy via NetGalley. My review is voluntary and expresses my honest opinion.

The review will be published on Barnes & Noble and Amazon.

I received an Arc through "NetGalley" and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

This story starts with Reacher waking up at an unknown location handcuffed to a table. Reacher is able to free himself after an individual comes in. Reacher is then met by Vidic who has ulterior motives when he agrees yo help Reacher. Vidic takes Reacher to a motel and gets him a room. While there, Reacher meets Knight who initially believes that Reacher is the person that killed her father. The two eventually team up to take a team of burglars down.

Read along and discoveries the adventures and dangers that the two followed in their pursuit. Find out who was responsible for getting the FBI involved and what they finally had to do to finish what they started.

The action is immense and fits well well with the other books in this. Pick it up, you won't be sorry!

This one starts off a little different, in that Reacher wakes up, shackled to a bed, not knowing where he is or how he got there. The action starts there and keeps on going. His signature fighting techniques are hindered by his injuries, but it doesn't slow him down. I read this as a digital ARC and just when you think the book is over and Reacher is headed down to New Orleans, he's not. It was like having a whole bonus story.! I love Jack Reacher and look forward to the new release every year.

Super fun and exciting Reacher book. Hard to tell where in the Reacher timeline this one takes place but none the less very very entertaining. Full of typical Reacher humor and action.

This was an unexpected DNF at 58%. I normally love this series. Unfortunately, this one just wasn't hitting. The pace was slower than expected and I didn't really care about our crime. Eventually, I decided I'd rather be reading something else. I'll await the next one!
