"Gripping and suspenseful . . . Child ratchets up the suspense to new heights."--The Denver Post Jack Reacher lives for the moment. Without a home. Without commitment. And with a burning desire to right wrongs--and rewrite his own agonizing past. DEA Susan Duffy is living for the future, knowing that she has made a terrible mistake by putting one of her own female agents into a death trap within a heavily guarded Maine mansion. Staging a brilliant ruse, Reacher hurtles into the dark heart of a vast criminal enterprise. Trying to rescue an agent whose time is running out, Reacher enters a crime lord's waterfront fortress. There he will find a world of secrecy and violence--and confront some unfinished business from his own past. Praise for Persuader "A page-turner . . . [Lee] Child's tale drives hard and fast."--Los Angeles Times Book Review "Wickedly addictive . . . so fast-paced it makes the eyeballs spin."--Orlando Sentinel "A story that will sweep you along as fast as some of the riptides Reacher survives."--St. Petersburg Times
