About this listen

A lone gunman unleashes pandemonium when he shoots into a crowd of people in a public plaza in Indiana. Five people are killed in cold blood, shot through the head. But he leaves a perfect trail of evidence behind him, and soon the local police chief tracks him down. After his arrest, the shooter's only words are, 'Get Jack Reacher for me.' What could possibly connect this psychopath and the wandering dropout ex-army cop? Critics call Lee Child's thriller series 'addictive', so here is the next, much-longed for, Reacher fix.©2005 Lee Child (P)2005 Random House Audiobooks Crime Fiction Mystery Suspense Thriller & Suspense Thriller Fiction

Another brilliant listen

This audio book was brilliant... in fact; in my opinion, better than the movie.
The narration was also perfect.

Hope you all enjoy this listen as much as I did?

Where’s the original narrator

New narrator is very lacking, especially with his accents and different characters making it a tedious experience. Not sure I can be bothered with the rest of the serious unfortunately…

Another Classic from Lee Child

Loved every bit better than the movie. Go Reacher go. Couldn't stop listening till the end.

Great story, bad narration .

Another great Reacher story, this time shorter and familiar from the Tim Cruise film.

Really didn’t like the new narrator and his voice for Reacher felt like a poor impression of the Batman.

Not sure I’ll listen to anymore if they are the new narrator.

Never fails!

Lee Child is a cracking story teller. Jack Reacher never fails to thrill. If you haven't read Jack Reacher yet I'm jealous. I guess I'll have to start again at the beginning.

Different to the film good novella

Having watched the Jack Reacher film sometime ago, this is the story that inspired the film. This has a different version of some events and a different ending. Short but great.

Not the best!

Would you try another book written by Lee Child or narrated by Kerry Shale?

Lee Child is a good author and I do read other Jack Reacher novels.
The narrator for this book was awful, I only just managed not to return it to audible. It detracted from the story... thank goodness it was only a short one!!

If you’ve listened to books by Lee Child before, how does this one compare?

This isn't his best work

Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Kerry Shale?

any other narrator who has read the Reacher series...

Was One Shot worth the listening time?

only just!

Any additional comments?

Book 10 was brilliant
