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 walks alone.

No job, no ID, no last known address. But he never turns down a plea for help. Now a woman tracks him down. A woman serving at the very heart of US power. A woman who needs Reacher's assistance in her new job.

Her job?

Protecting the Vice-President of the United States.

Her problem?

Someone wants the VP dead.


Although the Jack Reacher novels can be listened to in any order, Without Fail is the 6th in the series.

Critic Reviews

Lee Child writes edgy American thrillers to rival the likes of Thomas Harris and John Grisham
Sixth in seriously good series featuring Jack Reacher...Exciting, absorbing and intriguing, with hero big and bold enough to handle the percussive action
For most fans of Lee Child the greatest draw is his military police tough guy Jack Reacher...To be fair, Reacher is more of a thinking girl's beefcake - I can see Russell Crowe already angling for the movie part
Jack Reacher is a most magnetic creation, tough, cool and ultimately moral
Lee Child's protagonist, Jack Reacher, is a hero in the Dirty Harry style, a man who lives by his own principles...Produces a surprising twist when it's least expected
A good, edge-of-the-seat thriller

It's like a thought experiment. They almost pulled it out just by brainstorming. Just the ending was little out of touch.

Mind blowing

Without Fail isn’t just a razor-sharp thriller—it’s one of the most human Reacher stories in the series. Hired to find weaknesses in the Secret Service’s protection of the Vice President–elect, Reacher is his usual unstoppable self: methodical, calm, and lethal when he needs to be. But what makes this book stand out is how deeply it explores his emotional core—his loyalty, his quiet sense of justice, and the weight he carries from a lifetime of choices.

Lee Child balances relentless tension with moments of real vulnerability, giving us a Reacher who feels more layered than ever. The audiobook narration captures both his steel and his solitude perfectly, making this one of the most compelling listens in the series.

If you want action with real depth, Without Fail delivers.

Tense, Smart, and Surprisingly Moving

There was hardly any action unlike other Jack Reacher books. I took lot of time to complete this.
