EW's GRADE
A-

Details Release Date: Jun 03, 2008; Writer: Lee Child; Genres: Fiction, Mystery and Thriller; Publisher: Delacorte

Ex-Army cop and all-around hard guy Jack Reacher drifts into the aptly named Despair, Colo., and discovers a dead body and a mystery too juicy to walk away from in Lee Child's Nothing to Lose.

Movie Pitch
If Ben Affleck's willing to leave Boston, here's his follow-up to Gone Baby Gone.

Bottom Line
Twelve books into the Reacher franchise, Child's hard-boiled meal ticket shows no signs of drying up anytime soon. Thank goodness. A-
