A review by nadine_b
Die Trying by Lee Child

*Die Trying* takes everything great about *Killing Floor* and ramps it up to a whole new level. This time, Jack Reacher is thrown into a high-stakes kidnapping plot, and the tension never lets up. The story is relentless, packed with action, clever problem-solving, and Reacher’s signature mix of brute force and tactical genius.  

What makes this book stand out is how it balances nonstop action with a strong, resourceful female lead in FBI agent Holly Johnson. The dynamic between her and Reacher adds depth to the story, making it more than just a typical thriller. The villains are truly menacing, the stakes feel incredibly high, and the twists keep coming.  

If you enjoyed *Killing Floor*, *Die Trying* proves that Lee Child knows exactly how to keep readers hooked. It’s another fast-paced, explosive ride that cements Reacher as one of the best action heroes in modern fiction.

On to the next one!
