July 1977. Jack Reacher is almost seventeen, and he stops in New York on his way from South Korea to visit his brother at West Point. The summer heat is suffocating, fires are raging in the Bronx, the city is bankrupt, and the mad gunman known as Son of Sam is still on the loose.
Reacher meets a woman with a problem, and agrees to help her . . . and then the power grid fails and the lights go out, plunging the lawless city that never sleeps into chaos.
What does a visiting teenager do in the dark? If that visiting teenager is Jack Reacher, the answer is: plenty.

Lee Child could write a text message featuring Reacher and I would probably love it. This is a great short story.

Mememe
Agree all the books really worth reading and waiting for however the choice of Tom Cruise as Jack reacher begs the question, "did the film makers read any of the books"? If they did they would realise the utter miscasting of someone who is not even my height of five foot eight and I am a girl. I also don't see the answer the size is in the personality, really!!!! I need say no more.
