Lepší být mrtvý - Lee Child, Andrew Child
Bývalý vojenský policista Jack Reacher dál putuje křížem krážem Spojenými státy. V kapse má roličku bankovek, pas, platební kartu a zubní kartáček. Nikam nespěchá. A nikdy neuhýbá před problémy. A jeden velký ho potká na opuštěné silnici v Arizoně - v podobě džípu nabouraného do jediného stromu v širokém okolí. Ale všechno je jinak, než se na první pohled zdá. O několik minut později míří Reacher do nedalekého města, odlehlé díry u hranic s Mexikem, která má lepší časy už dávno za sebou. Vedle něj sedí Michaela Fentonová, válečná veteránka a později agentka FBI, jež se snaží najít svého bratra dvojče. Nejspíš se zapletl s nebezpečnými lidmi. A Reacher je nejspíš bude muset navštívit. Jejich šéf Dendoncker zanedbanému zapadákovu skrytě vládne. Najít ho je takřka nemožné. Dostat z něj odpovědi bude ještě těžší. A nepřátelští obyvatelé města by radši umřeli, než aby prozradili jakékoliv tajemství. Childův hrdina, bývalý vojenský policista Jack Reacher, se poprvé objevil v románu Killing Floor (č. Jatka, 1999), který měl okamžitě úspěch a autor za něj získal řadu ocenění. Streamovací platforma Amazon Prime Video podle něj letos uvádí osmidílnou minisérii nazvanou Reacher. Počínaje thrillerem Ochránce píše Child reacherovskou sérii spolu se svým bratrem Andrewem.

V městě Gerrardsvillu v Coloradu dojde k tragické události. Dva svědci podají dvě protichůdné výpovědi. Jeden viděl, že se žena sama vrhla pod autobus - jednoznačně spáchala sebevraždu. Druhým svědkem je Reacher. A viděl, co se skutečně stalo - ženu strčil pod autobus muž v šedé mikině s kapucí a v džínách, rychlý a nenápadný jako stín, a předtím, než zmizel, jí ukradl kabelku. Bývalý vojenský policista Jack Reacher ho začne pěšky pronásledovat, aniž by tušil, že se nejedná o běžný násilný čin. Neví, že ženina smrt je součástí něčeho mnohem většího - zlověstného, tajemného spiknutí, za nímž stojí mocní lidé zapletení do plánu, který se nesmí za žádnou cenu zhatit. Pokud plán někdo ohrozí, musí být bleskurychle a navždy odstraněn z cesty. A pokud onen plán ohrozí Reacher, nelze použít žádný plán B…

Nevracej se - Lee Child - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Bude litovat, že se vrátil? Nebo toho bude litovat někdo jiný? Jack Reacher, bývalý vojenský policista vycvičený rychle myslet a ještě rychleji jednat, se vrací do hlavního stanu své staré jednotky. Chce se tu setkat s novým velícím důstojníkem, majorem Susan Turnerovou, kterou zná jenom po hlase. Tu ale v kanceláři hlavního vedení nenajde. Aby očistil své i její jméno, musí ji co nejdříve najít, zatímco mu je v patách armáda, FBI, washingtonská policie a čtyři brutální hrdlořezové. V roce 2016 vznikla podle tohoto příběhu filmová adaptace v režii Edwarda Zwicka s Tomem Cruisem a Cobie Smulders v hlavních rolích. „Nesází se prvotně na pneumatická kladiva Reacherových pěstí, ale i na jeho důmysl a vynalézavost, s jakými musí vybruslit ze zpropadené situace, do níž se dostal.“ - Roman Lipčík, iLiteratura.cz „Jack Reacher nenechá žádný zločin nepotrestán. Když se navíc takový zločin týká přímo jeho a jeho blízkých, dokáže být v honbě za zločinci ještě vytrvalejší a při jejich potrestání ještě nesmlouvavější.“ – klubknihomolu.cz Lee Child (*1956) Pod pseudonymem se skrývá britský spisovatel akčních thrillerů, vlastním jménem Jim Grant.

Jack Reacher je ovšem zkušený vojenský policista, od dětství vychovávaný armádou, vycvičený k tomu, aby rychle myslel a ještě rychleji jednal. A svého bratra Joea nezabil. Aby našel skutečné vrahy všech pěti obětí, nezastaví se před ničím. Jak rozplétá zločinné spiknutí, rozpoutávají se vražedná jatka, ale Jack Reacher ví, že když něco začne, musí to dotáhnout do konce. Seznamte se s Jackem Reacherem! „Mix všeho, co má napínavý příběh mít – zvláštní záhada, krásná žena, drsní záporáci i pár správňáků.

Nothing To Lose - Lee Child
Two lonely towns in Colorado: Hope and Despair. Between them, twelve miles of empty road. Jack Reacher never turns back. It's not in his nature. All he wants is a cup of coffee. What he gets is big trouble. So in Lee Child’s electrifying new novel, Reacher—a man with no fear, no illusions, and nothing to lose—goes to war against a town that not only wants him gone, it wants him dead. It wasn’t the welcome Reacher expected. He was just passing through, minding his own business.

V průběhu zběsilého zátahu vystřelí ránu, která se zavrtá do hrudníku přibíhajícího policisty, a tak se musí urychleně zdekovat. Vše ale nasvědčuje tomu, že měl přece jen štěstí v neštěstí. Sotva se mladíkův otec – obchodník s orientálními koberci a zároveň velmi vlivný muž – dozví, že mu Jack zachránil syna, přijme ho do svých služeb.

The Explosive Child [Sixth Edition] - Ross W. Greene
Now in a revised and updated 6th edition, the groundbreaking, research-based approach to understanding and parenting children who frequently exhibit severe fits of temper and other challenging behaviors, from a distinguished clinician and pioneer in the field.What’s an explosive child? A child who responds to routine problems with extreme frustration—crying, screaming, swearing, kicking, hitting, biting, spitting, destroying property, and worse. A child whose frequent, severe outbursts leave his or her parents feeling frustrated, scared, worried, and desperate for help. Most of these parents have tried everything-reasoning, explaining, punishing, sticker charts, therapy, medication—but to no avail. They can’t figure out why their child acts the way he or she does; they wonder why the strategies that work for other kids don’t work for theirs; and they don’t know what to do instead.Dr. Ross Greene, a distinguished clinician and pioneer in the treatment of kids with social, emotional, and behavioral challenges, has worked with thousands of explosive children, and he has good news: these kids aren’t attention-seeking, manipulative, or unmotivated, and their parents aren’t passive, permissive pushovers. Rather, explosive kids are lacking some crucial skills in the domains of flexibility/adaptability, frustration tolerance, and problem solving, and they require a different approach to ...
