I haven’t read all of the Reacher books, there’s only so many hours in a day as I’m trying to work all the great ones into my ever growing list. I’m sure I’ve missed lots of background but it hasn’t been a deterrent. The only thing I can’t figure out is where his nest egg comes from. Even with his nomadic tendencies he drops a considerable amount of green. His military retirement must be hefty. He’s suffered some amnesia following an accident and the gaps have placed in smack dab in the middle of a conspiracy involving a mysterious report. Reacher has an unwilling FBI agent on speed dial and a new alliance with a woman with personal revenge on her mind. The sparks fly, as do the bullets. Perhaps a new romantic interest? The plot is full of the usual action and I was constantly stumped by which was the good guy or bad one. I enjoyed the plot and will keep reading Reacher’s antics.
Thanks to Random House Publishing Group, Delacorte Press for providing an Advance Reader Copy (via NetGalley) of “In Too Deep” Jack Reacher #29, by Lee Child and Andrew Child, publication expected 10/22/2024. My honest, personal thoughts and opinions are given voluntarily without compensation.

I think that this will s their best book yet. Lots of action along with great character development and plot twists.

Another excellent Reacher book! There were multiple times I thought the story was over but this one had more twists and turns. Complicated premise and great storytelling!

Reacher is back in true form. Action, intrigue, a little impossible noir that is what fiction is about. Quick read and now waiting for the next book. Thank you NetGalley.

Oh boy. Hang onto your seat for another wild ride with Jack Reacher. I enjoy the series (is this almost #30?) because of the story line, which I find unpredictable. There's always a crime - moral or legal trouble, a beautiful woman in distress, and Reacher drifting through nearby. From there it turns into a tornado of action.

Like most of the Reacher novels, this one kept me up late at night. I never knew what was around the bend. You'll turn page after page ("Just one more") and sigh with satisfaction when the end comes.

I'm always thinking, "What's the next one going to be about?" And, "When's it coming out?"

If you enjoy thrillers, unexpected heroes, and a touch of romance, Lee and Andrew Child serve it up in a riveting story. Have fun. (And keep the porch light on if you're scared of the dark.)

This is the 29th book in the Jack Reacher series, and as always, they pretty much work as standalones. Will you get slightly more if you read them in order, absolutely, but you do not have to, and I have not. I really enjoyed this story, it felt slightly more like a puzzle than the others that I have read. I enjoyed how it wasn’t overly apparently that this one was written by two authors, though at times I did wonder, and it gave me pause (this might be ironed out in final editing though). However, the story was nicely crafted and well done. I found the writing to be wonderfully suspenseful and full of action. It is obvious that this is a series that appeals to those who enjoy the shock and awe, and I am one of them and this book had plenty. At times there is a lot going on and I had to stay very focused in order to keep things straight, but my effort paid off because I was left with a satisfactory conclusion. The pacing is quick and I finished this book over the course of a Sunday afternoon.

I toggled back and forth between a PRHAudio ALC and an e-arc and enjoyed both. I highly recommend this one to those who want a high-octane thriller.

Don’t be afraid or shy because this is a long-standing series, jump right in and join the fun.

I was disappointed in this Reacher book. I have always loved reading any Reacher novel but this one didn't feel like those written before. I know it was written by two authors and I felt like each chapter was written by the opposite author. A chapter felt like Lee Child writing which was typical Reacher style. Then the next felt like Andrew Child must have written it because it didn't read like typical Reacher. The underlying story was basic Reacher but it felt disjointed. The story tells about a group of thieves that has been infiltrated by an FBI agent who has turned rogue. Reacher has been in a car accident and the thieves plan to put the blame on him for their actions. Anyone who has read any Reacher novel knows that would backfire spectacularly.

This book is quick, exciting and full of surprises. It taps into the dangers of investigating those that steal high-level information from corporations.

Four criminals started stealing millions of dollars of art. But the process of transporting statues, paintings and jewels was loaded with too many complexities. It was much easier for them to go after highly-sensitive documents that corporations wanted to remain private. Jack Reacher, a retired federal agent, was involved in trying to help in the scene of a car accident. He had no idea that he would end up unconscious and shackled in an unknown location.

The reader follows the good detective and bad criminals. It was awkward at times when the story moved in the same chapter from the investigator to the ruthless lawbreakers with only a space break. I would feel so entranced by the story that I forgot when it switched over to the other side. However, once I put the pieces of the plot and characters together knowing what to expect, the pace was quick.

The story not only involved the chase to get the criminals arrested but it had humor in places and some interesting tidbits from WWII. It made the reader speculate if the plot had any truth in the end. I can’t imagine a person like Jack Reacher drifting without any type of home but I guess it’s possible buying new clothes every couple of days.

This is the first book that I’ve read by Lee Child and Andrew Child and it won’t be the last. This is the 29th of a series, however, each book stands alone. I know several people that would love to get their hands on this as it’s an engaging thriller that certainly makes you pause with questions you wish you could ask.

My thanks to Delacorte Press and NetGalley for allowing me to read an advanced copy of this book with an expected release date of October 22, 2024.

With Reacher not being able to use his physical strength, he really had to be a different kind of guy - not completely because he's still Reacher, Good story. Enjoyable read.

If you love the series, you will love the latest installment.

Reacher is back at it again, all because someone just won't leave him alone. Gosh what a man.

Simple classic Reacher, and of course the chaos that is happening around him.

Thank you NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group for my ARC!

This will not rank among my favorite Reacher books but it was ok. I didn't particularly care for the villains or the usually random assistant. Also, you know how the Peter Jackson movie version of Return of the King had like 3 almost endings and it got annoying? That happens here too...everything is wrapped up...but wait, there's more! You could tell that it was going to happen by where you were in the book and how many pages were left...and then the final ending was super rushed. I'll look forward to next year's book!

This series doesn't disappoint. If you're a fan, you know what you're gonna get, and this book delivers. Nothing too deep, but simply classic Reacher. I liked Reacher's connection with Knight -- she was an effective counterweight and ally. This isn't going to make you stay up late contemplating the world's issues, but it certainly will keep you entertained for hours.

Mission accomplished.

I received a complimentary copy of the novel from the publisher and NetGalley, and my review is being left freely.

Review of Advance Reader’s Copy eBook

When Reacher finds himself shackled to a metal table with no idea of how he got there, he vows that whoever is responsible will pay. If only he could remember where he was, what happened after he hitched a ride and the car he was riding in was forced off the road, how he’d hurt his wrist.

Ivan Vidic had seen the accident that injured Reacher, that killed the driver. He’d called Darren Fletcher; they’d gotten the two men out of the car; Ivan sent it over the edge.

Can Reacher solve the mystery surrounding Vidic and his associates? Can he determine what is actually at play?

=========

In this, the twenty-ninth adventure for Jack Reacher, Jack finds himself in the midst of a puzzle that becomes a case with implications for many. He is his usual self, puzzling things out, working to solve the case. Some unexpected plot twists keep readers guessing as Reacher gathers information and solves the case.

Grabbing readers from the outset and pulling them into the telling of the tale, the constantly-building suspense joins with the lies, deceptions, fights, and puzzles to push readers into a turn-the-pages-as-fast-as-possible frenzy of non-stop reading. It’s a solid addition to the Jack Reacher oeuvre; as with the other Reacher stories, it works well as a stand-alone.

Readers of the series as well as reader who enjoy suspenseful thrillers will find much to appreciate here.

Highly recommended.

I received a free copy of this eBook from Random Hose Publishing Group – Ballantine Delacorte Press and NetGalley
#InTooDeep #NetGalley

This is a typical Jack Reacher novel! By this point in the series you know what you’re going to get - which still manages to draw you in and keep reading.
Jack has again wandered into a “situation”, this time with implications for the entire US.
Jack meets girl, they fight the bad guys together and win!

Pros: fast read, enthralling
Cons: nothing new or life changing


B/4⭐️

I want to thank NetGalley for issuing me this book for my opinion.

Another great book in the Reacher series. I have enjoyed every Reacher book I have read from the series. This one is. another 5 star, but I will admit it was just a little off for me. I didn't have that--I don't want to put it down--feeling as in most of the books. May just have been me over anticipating this read. Having said that, it was an another Reacher book. Can't be anything wrong with that!

The book was beautifully written. Another great read from Lee Child's! Overall, the book was well written and I did really enjoy it.

Book #29 in the famous (infamous) Jack Reacher series. I've read every story.....short or full length.....and Jack Reacher's adventures are always an exciting ride on an express train. IN TOO DEEP starts a little different than usual. Reacher has already found trouble and is not sure how he came to be chained to an exam table with a broken right wrist and a concussion. It's usually much later in the book before he's banged up this bad. The plot line was a little confusing; it seemed like Child shotgunned several story lines onto the page, then changed the focus every few chapters. But in the end, Reacher figures out what's important and saves the day, week, month, year. Even with a few wrinkles, IN TOO DEEP is easily a 5 star read, after all, it's Reacher!!!!

Another exciting adventure in the life of Jack Reacher. Waking up handcuffed to a steel table in total darkness, Reacher wants to know how did he get there and who is responsible - for there will be hell to pay! Teaming up with one of the criminals who wants to double-cross his partners, Reacher stays in the game not for the millions of dollars he's promised but because his internal radar is telling him that something here is way, way off the truth. Not everyone is who they say they are and everyone has their own agendas. Reacher just needs to figure out the who, what, why, where and how before his mind will settle and he'll feel just fine moving on once again.
For fans of the series, this one will not disappoint.

Jack Reacher awakes to a dire situation. He is on table and bound by his hands and feet. Plus, he has no memory of what has happened to him. Reaching into his physical and mental bag of tricks, he escapes but not without finding himself in more danger. He soon, with the help of a young woman, avenging the death of her father, attempts to destroy a gang of ruthless men and one woman who are out to make a killing but also kill and potentially harm a great many people. Reacher is still Reacher, strong, smart but lacking emotion and empathy. Perhaps, that is why he succeeds as a hero. Thanks to Net Galley for the arc

Reacher comes to strapped to a jinky bed with no idea how he got there and how his right arm had become seriously damaged. His possessions are missing and he just wants to get the hell out of there.
He has a foggy memory of a car accident and little of the driver. His captors have plans on forcing him to reveal the driver’s plans.
Reacher unleashed is a terrible sight for some…
