Make Me by Lee Child is a riveting, edge-of-your-seat thriller that plunges Jack Reacher into one of his darkest and most addictive adventures yet. This novel is a masterclass in suspense, blending psychological intensity with intense action sequences that leave readers breathless. Prepare yourself for a heart-pounding journey from the unparalleled master of the thriller genre.

Jack Reacher, renowned for having no set destination and all the time in the world, arrives at a seemingly innocuous railroad stop in the middle of the vast prairie. The place, intriguingly named Mother's Rest, promises nothing more than a brief, aimless layover. He expects to uncover a forgotten pioneer tombstone amidst endless fields of nearly-ripe wheat.

However, Reacher's routine stop quickly transforms into a gripping mystery when he encounters a distressed woman searching for her missing colleague. Her only lead is a cryptic note hinting at an unimaginable 200 deaths, and she is desperate for answers. The small town of Mother's Rest is peculiar, populated by enigmatic residents who watch in silence, their gazes heavy with secrets.

A simple one-day stopover escalates into an open-ended quest as Reacher delves deeper into the ominous underbelly of the internet. His investigation uncovers a hidden world teeming with treachery and malice, leading him straight to the nightmare heart of darkness. Reacher's relentless pursuit of the truth will challenge his every skill and resource, pushing him to the brink.

Make Me is the 20th instalment in the Jack Reacher series, but worry not—each novel can stand alone, offering a complete adventure. For long-time fans and new readers alike, this book is an exhilarating entry into Reacher's thrilling world of justice and survival.

And don't miss Reacher's newest adventure: No Plan B, the 27th book in the series, is out now and promises to keep you on the edge of your seat with its relentless pace and unrelenting suspense.

"Child's best for some time...with detective-story and romcom elements (even sly humour) on top of the psychological duels and set-piece violence." (Sunday Times)
