About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Read by award-winning narrator Jeff Harding.

**NOW A MAJOR PRIME TV SERIES STARRING ALAN RITCHSON**

Jack Reacher is alone, the way he likes it.

He watches a man cross a New York street and drive away in a Mercedes. The car contains $1 million of ransom money. Reacher's job is to make sure it all turns out right - money paid, family safely returned.

But Reacher is in the middle of a nasty little war where nothing is simple.

What started on a busy New York street explodes three thousand miles away, in the sleepy English countryside.

Reacher's going to have to do this one the hard way.

_________

Although the Jack Reacher novels can be listened to in any order, The Hard Way is the 10th in the series.

‘Jeff Harding’s [...] narration captures Reacher’s character perfectly [...] you have to savour every minute.’ The Sunday Times

The storyline lovely, descriptions and need for details definitely not something I looked forward to. With a style of writing definitely not one of my favourites, I still could not get over the twists and coming together of the final story...

Love for audio books continues

The Hard Way is everything a Jack Reacher novel should be—tight plotting, sharp dialogue, and a hero who’s always three steps ahead. What starts as a simple favor for a stranger turns into a twisting hunt across New York and London, where every lead peels back another layer of deception.

Reacher’s mix of quiet observation, brute strength, and razor-sharp instincts makes the story impossible to pause. The tension builds beautifully, and the audiobook narration brings Reacher’s calm authority to life.

This isn’t just another thriller; it’s Lee Child at his most precise and gripping. A must-listen for fans of smart, high-stakes suspense.

Classic Reacher: Smart, Relentless, and Unpredictable
