The Jack Reacher Files: Hostage—A Gripping Standalone Pulp Thriller
The use of story situations and supporting characters from the Jack Reacher universe authorized by Lee Child.
Several years after the riveting events depicted in international bestselling author Lee Child’s NOTHING TO LOSE, a brutal abduction threatens to turn a small Colorado township upside down…
Jack Reacher…
Former army major, military police, the 110th Special Investigations Unit. Now a drifter and a trouble magnet.
Caminha Sozinho…
Assassin for hire. An expert marksman when distance is called for, but prefers the intimacy of a sharp blade. After failing on his first attempt, he must kill Reacher now or face death himself.
The trap…
In a small Colorado community just west of the Kansas border, a police officer named Vaughan goes missing shortly after finishing her shift. Will Jack Reacher come running when he hears that an old friend is in trouble?
Note: While the name Jack Reacher and some of the supporting characters and story situations are used with author Lee Child’s permission, the Jack Reacher character remains offstage in THE JACK REACHER FILES thrillers.
THE JACK REACHER FILES: HOSTAGE is 18,000 words, approximately 85 pages.

Praise for Jude Hardin’s Thrillers:
POCKET-47 sucked me in and held me enthralled. Author Jude Hardin keeps the pace frantic, the thrills non-stop, but best of all is his hero, the wonderfully ironic Nicholas Colt. This is a character I'm eager to follow through many adventures to come.
—Tess Gerritsen, New York Times bestselling author of ICE COLD.
The best PI debut I've read in years, fit to share shelf space with the best of Ross Macdonald, Sue Grafton, and Robert B. Parker. POCKET-47 is so hot you may burn your hands reading. Highly recommended.
—J.A. Konrath, author of the Jack Daniels mysteries
Hardin gets everything right in his powerhouse thriller debut, which introduces rock star–turned–PI Nicholas Colt.
—Publishers Weekly on POCKET-47
KEY DEATH is an exhilarating thriller that punches way above its weight. It hits you hard and fast with crackling suspense, hair-raising twists and stunning revelations. Word of advice: don't start on this one unless you're prepared to stay up all night.
—John Ling, author of THE BLASPHEMER
Colt is a physical, no-holds-barred PI, reminiscent of Robert B. Parker's Spenser and Lee Child's Jack Reacher, and his debut is action-packed. With a hefty toll of dead bodies, some described in cringe-inducing detail, this is crime fiction at its rawest. Hard-boiled connoisseurs should make Colt's acquaintance now.
—Booklist on POCKET-47
With CROSSCUT, Jude Hardin takes the PI novel and psychological suspense to a new, unrestrained level. Fast, fierce, and relentless.
—David Morrell, New York Times bestselling creator of Rambo
