內容簡介 紐約時報暢銷書。史蒂芬金讚譽「最酷系列」的驚悚小說。最受讀者喜愛的「浪人神探」，不受拘束、享受孤獨的傑克。李奇再度回歸《紐約時報》最佳暢銷偵探小說、《洛杉磯時報》、《英國衛報》、《美國懸疑雜誌》評選為年度最佳暢銷書之一、2015年亞馬遜前20大暢銷書「李查德簡直就是偵探小說界的最大贏家。他總是能將所有怪異的元素與偵探小說的老梗集結成最完美而獨創的故事內容。」─《美聯社》「什麼樣的小鎮才會被稱作母親的安息地？」李奇不斷思索著，但沒有任何人願意告訴他答案。這是一個隱身在廣大麥田的小鎮，火車經過的其中一個小站，充滿著憂鬱及小心翼翼的居民，還有一個名叫Michelle Chang的憂愁女子。她將李奇誤認為她失蹤已久的搭擋，或許也早已死亡。獨來獨往的李奇沒有特殊的目的地，但每到一處卻總是與這名憂愁的女子有關，所以李奇決定與Michelle一同調查行蹤成謎的搭擋。李奇心想，能有多糟，反正他早在洛杉磯、芝加哥、鳳凰城及洛杉機各處面臨過許多瀕死的危機，每到一處都有危險的暴徒與刺客。然而他卻不知道，在這個看似平靜的小鎮，其實早就隱藏著難以想像的夢靨在等著他。 #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY LOS ANGELES TIMES AND THE GUARDIAN • Stephen King calls Jack Reacher “the coolest continuing series character”—and now he’s back in this masterly new thriller from Lee Child.“Why is this town called Mother’s Rest?” That’s all Reacher wants to know. But no one will tell him. It’s a tiny place hidden in a thousand square miles of wheat fields, with a railroad stop, and sullen and watchful people, and a worried woman named Michelle Chang, who mistakes him for someone else: her missing partner in a private investigation she thinks must have started small and then turned lethal.Reacher has no particular place to go, and all the time in the world to get there, and there’s something about Chang . . . so he teams up with her and starts to ask around. He thinks: How bad can this thing be? But before long he’s plunged into a desperate race through LA, Chicago, Phoenix, and San Francisco, and through the hidden parts of the internet, up against thugs and assassins every step of the way—right back to where he started, in Mother’s Rest, where he must confront the worst nightmare he could imagine.Walking away would have been easier. But as always, Reacher’s rule is: If you want me to stop, you’re going to have to make me.
