All across the United States respectable, upstanding citizens are showing up dead.

That attention comes from the secretary of defense. All of a sudden he wants an interagency task force to investigate. And he wants Jack Reacher as the army’s representative. If Reacher gets a result, great. If not, he’s a convenient fall guy. But office politics isn’t Reacher’s thing. Three questions quickly emerge: Who’s with him, who’s against him, and will the justice he dispenses be the official kind . . . or his own kind?

      #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Don’t miss the hit streaming series Reacher! Jack Reacher is back! The “utterly addictive” (The New York Times) series continues as acclaimed author Lee Child teams up with his brother, Andrew Child, fellow thriller writer extraordinaire. “One of the many great things about Jack Reacher is that he’s larger than life while remaining relatable and believable. The Sentinel shows that two Childs are even better than one.”—James Patterson As always, Reacher has no particular place to go, and all the time in the world to get there. One morning he ends up in a town near Pleasantville, Tennessee. But there’s nothing pleasant about the place. In broad daylight Reacher spots a hapless soul walking into an ambush. “It was four against one” . . . so Reacher intervenes, with his own trademark brand of conflict resolution. The man he saves is Rusty Rutherford, an unassuming IT manager, recently fired after a cyberattack locked up the town’s data, records, information . . . and secrets. Rutherford wants to stay put, look innocent, and clear his name. Reacher is intrigued. There’s more to the story. The bad guys who jumped Rutherford are part of something serious and deadly, involving a conspiracy, a cover-up, and murder—all centered on a mousy little guy in a coffee-stained shirt who has no idea what he’s up against. Rule one: if you don’t know the trouble you’re in, keep Reacher by your side.

      #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “The perfect crime scene . . . in the type of wild but smart caper that Grisham’s readers love.”—Delia Owens, author of Where the Crawdads Sing As Bruce Cable’s Bay Books awaits bestselling author Mercer Mann's return, Hurricane Leo unexpectedly targets the island. Florida's governor mandates an evacuation, prompting most residents to flee, but Bruce chooses to stay and weather the storm. The hurricane wreaks havoc, destroying homes and businesses, resulting in numerous casualties. Among the victims is Nelson Kerr, a friend of Bruce's and a thriller author. However, the nature of Nelson's injuries raises suspicion; he has sustained multiple blows to the head, indicating foul play rather than a storm-related death. With local police overwhelmed and ill-equipped, Bruce suspects that the shady characters from Nelson's novels may have real-life counterparts. On Nelson's computer lies the manuscript of his latest book, which could hold crucial clues. As Bruce delves into the investigation, he uncovers shocking revelations that surpass even the most unexpected twists in Nelson's stories—and the danger escalates. Explore the thrilling world of John Grisham’s Camino novels: Camino Island, Camino Winds, and Camino Ghosts.
