“I love writing Reacher but these stand-alone stories were a real delight for me . . . It was liberating. And fun.”—Lee Child
Twenty crime stories by the creator of Jack Reacher, never before collected

A methodical bodyguard quits his job when he’s outsmarted. A military mission is planned to perfection. A potential worker for the Manhattan Project is carefully surveilled by an FBI agent. A killer preys on other killers. Taken together, these stories are a riotous calamity of criminals and crime fighters; individually, they are expertly crafted, piercing tales that hit hard enough to leave a mark.
