À propos de ce contenu audio

Brought to you by Penguin.

Read by award-winning narrator Jeff Harding.

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

JACK REACHER NEVER LOOKS BACK . . . UNTIL NOW.

The present can be tense . . .

A young couple trying to get to New York City are stranded at a lonely motel in the middle of nowhere. Before long they're trapped in an ominous game of life and death.

But the past can be worse . . .

Meanwhile, Jack Reacher sets out on an epic road trip across America. He doesn't get far. Deep in the New England woods, he sees a sign to a place he has never been - the town where his father was born. But when he arrives he is told no one named Reacher ever lived there. Now he wonders: who's lying?

As the tension ratchets up and these two stories begin to entwine, the stakes have never been higher for Reacher.

That's for damn sure.

Although the Jack Reacher novels can be listened to in any order, Past Tense is the 23rd in the series.

Commentaires

Absolutely loved Past Tense – Lee Child just gets better and better, which is a very rare quality in a writer of a long-run series. Whip smart, always compelling, always fun, he is dangerously addictive. (Peter James)
Jack Reacher is today's James Bond, a thriller hero we can't get enough of (Ken Follett)
I loved it. One of the best. (Jonathan Ross)
It’s Lee Child. Why would you not read it? (Karin Slaughter)
Sometimes you just want someone who can beat the s*** out of people! I pick up Jack Reacher when I’m in the mood for someone big to solve my problems (Patricia Cornwell)
Loved [Past Tense]! Nothing makes for a great weekend quite like quality time with Jack . (Lisa Gardner)
Busy, bloody and ingenious
One of the best...hits the mark perfectly. (Joanne Harris)
The pace picks up...the action becomes brutal, and we're led to an extremely satisfying conclusion...I'm becoming increasingly understanding of our appetite for fiction that features proper punishment for baddies. It's deeply comforting to escape into an imaginary world where we're all safe in Jack Reacher's gammon-joint sized hands.

Le plus pertinent
The story is a classic Reacher story, it keeps being fun and exciting and entertaining throughout the entire book. There are some plot twists , one more predictable than the other. Jeff Harding has a good voice and reliable does great voices for the different characters, and perfectly keeps track of who's who, never slipping up in the conversations. Which is great! But he has a singing timbre that gets annoying, later you get used to it, and than you find it annoying again. I wouldn't call it a deal-breaker, but if another reader is present, I think I'll prefer them over Jeff Harding.

Not the best Timbre to read a good story.

Wow, that was quite different in a way. All the time thinking how the two stories would collide. I have read some very negative feedback about this book which I DO NOT agree with at all. It’s a good psychological thriller

A slow burning, slow burn story.
