Author: Lee Child

About the Author: Lee Child was born October 29th, 1954 in Coventry, England, but spent his formative years in the nearby city of Birmingham. By coincidence he won a scholarship to the same high school that JRR Tolkien had attended. He went to law school in Sheffield, England, and after part-time work in the theater he joined Granada Television in Manchester for what turned out to be an eighteen-year career as a presentation director during British TV’s “golden age.” During his tenure his company made Brideshead Revisited, The Jewel in the Crown, Prime Suspect, and Cracker. But he was fired in 1995 at the age of 40 as a result of corporate restructuring. Always a voracious reader, he decided to see an opportunity where others might have seen a crisis and bought six dollars’ worth of paper and pencils and sat down to write a book, Killing Floor, the first in the Jack Reacher series. Killing Floor was an immediate success and launched the series which has grown in sales and impact with every new installment. The first Jack Reacher movie, based on the novel One Shot and starring Tom Cruise and Rosamund Pike, was released in December 2012. Lee has three homes—an apartment in Manhattan, a country house in the south of France, and whatever airplane cabin he happens to be in while traveling between the two. In the US he drives a supercharged Jaguar, which was built in Jaguar’s Browns Lane plant, thirty yards from the hospital in which he was born. Lee spends his spare time reading, listening to music, and watching the Yankees, Aston Villa, or Marseilles soccer. He is married with a grown-up daughter. He is tall and slim, despite an appalling diet and a refusal to exercise.

Via di fuga book pdf download By Lee Child

Una donna viene trovata morta nella vasca da bagno, nuda, il corpo immerso in una vernice color verde militare. Il suo nome è Amy Callan. Lo stesso accade a Caroline Cooke. Nessun segno di violenza, nessuna impronta digitale, nessuna fibra da analizzare: la causa della morte risulta inspiegabile persino per i migliori patologi dell’FBI. Sulle scene dei delitti non ci sono segni di effrazione, come se le donne, prima di morire, avessero ricevuto in casa una persona conosciuta. Dal passato delle vittime emerge che entrambe hanno fatto parte dell’esercito, ed entrambe si sono congedate dopo aver subito molestie sessuali. Il profilo dell’assassino, stilato dall’agente speciale Julia Lamarr, indica il presunto colpevole in qualcuno dello stesso ambiente: una persona sicuramente intelligente e meticolosa, che conduce una vita solitaria e probabilmente insegue una vendetta personale. Un profilo che porta dritto a Jack Reacher, ex maggiore della polizia militare che conosceva sia Amy sia Caroline. Quando risulta chiaro che Reacher con quei delitti non c’entra, l’FBI non esiterà a ricorrere a ogni mezzo pur di ottenerne la collaborazione: perché comunque l’assassino è qualcuno che vive come lui, che pensa come lui, che agisce come lui. Ma Reacher non è uomo che possa tollerare coercizioni o minacce, e non accetta di essere uno strumento nelle mani dei federali. Così, ben presto, si troverà, solo, a indagare tra le pieghe di una realtà inafferrabile, sulla scia di un serial killer lucidamente determinato a portare a termine la propria missione.
