Night School, the 21st instalment in the Jack Reacher series by number-one bestselling author Lee Child, dives deep into Reacher's past, taking him back to his army days but this time without his uniform.

This intricately wired and fiendishly clever story promises to make the cold sweat trickle down your spine.

Karin Slaughter praises the book, saying, "I know I say this every year... But. Best. Reacher. Ever."

Set in 1996, Night School begins with a cryptic message intercepted from the air: "The American wants a hundred million dollars". The Soviets may be long gone, but a new, insidious enemy has emerged. In an inconspicuous apartment in Hamburg, a group of smartly-dressed young Saudis are meticulously plotting something monumental.

Fresh off a secret mission, Jack Reacher is honoured with a medal in the morning and dispatched back to school in the afternoon. However, this is no ordinary school. Joined by an FBI agent and a CIA analyst, Reacher is one of only three students tasked with a high-stakes assignment: to unearth the identity of the mysterious American, discern what he's selling, and find out who the buyer is.

This gripping tale unfolds with brilliant suspense, sharp dialogue, and unpredictable twists that will keep readers on the edge of their seats.

Although the Jack Reacher novels can be enjoyed in any sequence, Night School is officially the 21st book in the series. Don't miss out on Reacher's latest adventure, book number 26, Better Off Dead, available now!
