"Ever more gripping...Night School is the closest that Reacher has
come to being a secret agent, making this expertly paced thriller
and addictive combination of spy yarn, detective story and
beat-'em-up fightfest."
*Sunday Times*
"I know I say this every year...But. Best. Reacher. Ever."
*Karin Slaughter*
"Reacher... wins all fights, charms all women and outsmarts all
rivals, friend or foe.What makes Night School the best of the
Reacher novels I've read is that Child has concocted a brilliant
plot...battling to save America, or maybe the entire civilised
world, from a terrorist plot that is original, engrossing and all
too believable...one of the best thrillers you'll read this
year."
*Washington Post*
"Dripping with irony and oozing dread...utterly gripping...Acute
observation reveals "every detail of the glowing scene". Many
so-called literary novels lack such skill."
*Evening Standard*
"This latest instalment has all the classic ingredients: a great
setting, a good villain, and a mystery that draws you in
efficiently, escalates unpredictably, and has a satisfying
resolution."
*New Yorker*
