Who’s Reading “The Dread Line” Now? It’s Lee Child, The Creator of Jack Reacher!

 

Lee Child is the author of the Jack Reacher novels, one of the best-selling crime fiction series of all time. I snapped this photo of him in New Orleans last month.

The Dread Line is the fifth book in the Edgar Award-winning series of hardboiled crime novels by Bruce DeSilva. In it, New England Patriots, still shaken by a series of murder charges against one of their star players (true story) have hired Liam Mulligan, the hero of the novels, to investigate the background of a college star they are thinking of drafting. At first, the job seems routine, but as soon as he starts asking questions, he gets push-back. The player has something to hide, and someone is willing to kill to make sure it remains secret.
