About the Author

Lee Child, the pen name of British-born author Jim Grant, is a master of the thriller genre, renowned for his gripping tales of justice and survival. Born in Coventry, England, in 1954, Child moved to the United States in the 1990s, where he honed his craft as a full-time writer after a career in television production. His iconic protagonist, Jack Reacher—a towering, nomadic ex-military drifter with a razor-sharp mind and unyielding moral code—has captivated millions worldwide. Child's narratives blend high-stakes action, intricate plotting, and a deep sense of wanderlust, often set against the vast American landscape. With over two decades of bestselling success, he continues to deliver pulse-pounding stories that explore the thin line between right and wrong, cementing his status as one of the premier suspense writers of our time.
