About the book
In Echo Burning, the fifth Jack Reacher novel, the drifter Reacher leaves a Texas town after a fight with a local policeman and takes a ride from Carmen Greer. She is frightened of her violent husband Sloop, who is about to leave prison, and she hopes Reacher can help. He agrees only to look into her situation and, if needed, protect her. At the family ranch, where Sloop's relatives and hired hands are hostile, Reacher takes a job as a wrangler and bonds with Carmen's young daughter, Ellie.
