A must for all Reacher fans. This one goes right to the beginning and sets up Reacher for the whole series. Lee Child also gives us an insight into Reacher's family background and his early influences. His personality though remains the same and this is another sure shot page turner. Unlike the future when he takes the law into his own hands here he is with the law and sent by his boss to investigate a murder. Enjoyable read. Meet some of the characters who you will come across later in the s...

This is vintage quintessential Lee Child at its best. Reacher is young and is doing what he does best. A must read for the fans of this particular franchise. Its a prequel to killing floor but at the same time there is this beautiful continuity. Quite sweetly ironical. Amazing read !

'Mess with me, and I'll kill you, no worries.' That's what Jack Reacher would say to bad people and villains, 2 or 20 or 200 in number, just doesn't matter. The plot is a fast paced one albeit a little predictable towards the end of it, not the worst of this genre, but definitely not the best in the Jack Reacher series.

I bought this as hit and try but this was my best hit . It Has superb storyline great twist and grant addiction factor.

The story is amazing, the suspense is gripping - full of twists and turns, you won't know who to believe. Hard to put down. Loved the book!!!

it is an awesome book for those who love thriller.
but i must say that the suspense is moderate and you may regret that reacher is not as goo as in previous books.
but overall a book that is a good read

The book tells you, why Reacher left MP. Tells you why he is always found as drifter. His fighting skills. Foundation of each and every quality Reacher has, foundation is there in the book.

So really want to know about the history of Jack Reacher, go ahead and grab this book.

One more point the book do have a great murder mystery plot but a weak climax to which will tend to let you run in the end rather than keeping interest till the end.

thanks will come back with review of The Firm by Jo...

A suspense novel from one of the masters of crime writing. A good read. A must read for the fans of Lee Child franchise. This book is a prequel set six months before Child's first novel, Killing Floor and forms the backdrop of the explosive circumstances under which Jack Reacher's career in the United States Army was terminated.

never read any Lee Child book before.................
my first Reacher book...amazing story..story totally grips you.........................
its worth the money....love reading it.....................

I have always been a fan of the Reacher series and have read all the books. This book, the Affair, has something different from the other titles of the series. This book takes us to start of the place where Reacher becomes what he is today.

The prose, flow and suspense in the book is sensational.
