Posted: January 4, 2017

It's the 1990s, Jack Reacher is a Major in the military, right off a successful mission when he receives new orders to go to a military school. Upon arrival he quickly realizes that he and the other two men there are not really going to school. Reacher quickly contacts the best NCO he knows, Neagley, and they begin to look into what is now known as the Islamic terror threat. Something very deadly went missing a long time ago and a soldier not only I found it, but has plans to sell it to a group of terrorist. They must stop him or thousands will die.

Most readers of Reacher stories will be happy to go back and read some of his exploits from when he was younger. His old days in the military are referenced to quite often. It's always nice to read stories about his history and get some insight into what makes him the man he is today. NIGHT SCHOOL is a really good example of this. Also I always enjoy reading more about Negley. She is a very competent NCO and great female character. Maybe someday we can get all her story and Jack can help her come to terms with things or break out of her berrier.

If you ever wanted more details and stories from a young Jack Reacher, when he was still in the military then don't miss NIGHT SCHOOL by Lee Child.

Book Summary

Discover the thriller series that The New York Times calls “utterly addictive.” After eleven straight global #1 bestsellers, Lee Child sends readers back to school with the most explosive Jack Reacher novel yet.

It’s 1996, and Reacher is still in the army. In the morning they give him a medal, and in the afternoon they send him back to school. That night he’s off the grid. Out of sight, out of mind.

Two other men are in the classroom—an FBI agent and a CIA analyst. Each is a first-rate operator, each is fresh off a big win, and each is wondering what the hell they are doing there.

Then they find out: A Jihadist sleeper cell in Hamburg, Germany, has received an unexpected visitor—a Saudi courier, seeking safe haven while waiting to rendezvous with persons unknown. A CIA asset, undercover inside the cell, has overheard the courier whisper a chilling message: The American wants a hundred million dollars.”

For what? And who from? Reacher and his two new friends are told to find the American. Reacher recruits the best soldier he has ever worked with: Sergeant Frances Neagley. Their mission heats up in more ways than one, while always keeping their eyes on the prize: If they don’t get their man, the world will suffer an epic act of terrorism.

From Langley to Hamburg, Jalalabad to Kiev, Night School moves like a bullet through a treacherous landscape of double crosses, faked identities, and new and terrible enemies, as Reacher maneuvers inside the game and outside the law.
