5Die Trying

The second Reacher story immediately puts Jack in danger

Die Tryingis one of Ritchson ’s favoriteReacherbooksand the 2nd novel in Child ’s series . The story opens with Reacher trying to help a woman with some wash - before they ’re both kidnapped and ball up into a caravan for ground unknown . Die Tryingstarts small , before unfold into a spacious - scale leaf story . This novel found Child starting to zero in on the normal of his serial publication , and grow the Jack Reacher grapheme readers came to know and have sex .

Both Ritchson and sports fan of Reacher loveDie Trying , and an adaption would break the show ’s tendency thus far to give Reacher a personal stake in the secret plan . He ’s rightfully in the dark when the story begin , and it stretch in surprising ways . Die Tryingalso features a not bad female case in Holly Johnson , the FBI agent whose kidnapping kicks the narrative in motion . After skipping it for time of year 2 , it would also be fun to see the showrunners circle back toDie Tryingfor the next escapade .

4Personal

Personal takes Jack on an international mission

An easter egg reference to Lee Child’sOne Shot- which was adjust for the Tom CruiseJack Reachermovie - made during time of year 2 likely mean Amazon ’s show will never cover that book . That ’s a smart choice , consider there ’s no way to conform it without Cruise ’s divisive take being equate to Ritchson ’s Reacher , which sounds like uncalled-for drama . That said , the show can do its own version ofOne Shot , with the nineteenth bookPersonalcovering similar ground .

Personalinvolves Reacher going on a globe - hopping mission to cease a sniper from assassinate the President of France ; the same sniper has a vendetta against Reacher too . AdaptingPersonalwould give season 3 a broader oscilloscope , as it takes Reacher out of America and sends him to France and London . If the show wanted to contribute back the like of Neagley , Dixon or even introduce James Barr fromOne Shot- a sniper who was framed for several execution - then their connexion to Reacher ’s US Army past tense would make that a lilliputian easier too .

Reacher time of year 2 inaugurate Jack Reacher ’s former military team , the 110th Special Investigations Unit , composed of highly - skilled members .

The only mark againstPersonalis that despite being a unanimous thriller , it would n’t be weigh a top - level novel either . There are peck of other stories readers would love to see covered first and some element - such asPersonal’sfinale being do inside an oversize business firm - moulding on the ridiculous .

3Worth Dying For

The 15th novel features Reacher’s most disturbing villains

One thing Amazon’sReacherhas lacked so far is really memorable villains . Kliner ( Chris Webster ) from time of year 1 - which adaptedKilling Floor- or Robert Patrick ’s Langston from series 2 have been effectively nasty , but they ’re also one note and lacking any real profoundness . Reacherseason 3 should endeavor to correct this , andWorth Dying Forcould be the perfect book to do that . deserving Dying Forfinds Jack in Nebraska , where he shit foe of the brutal Duncan clan while uncovering their horrify crime doughnut .

The Duncans are considered some of the best foe Reacher has faced while stranding him in rural Nebraska with no backup and few places to hide . Christopher McQuarrie actually wanted to adaptWorth Dying ForforJack Reacher 2 , feeling the continuation should be more intense and roentgen - place . That plan obviously did n’t work out , butWorth go Foris still one of the darkest , most vivid tales from Child ’s series , and would give Reacher himself a echt challenge to overcome .

2Tripwire

The third Jack Reacher novel is arguably the best of the entire series

Tripwireis the third ledger and one that ’s almost considered a hallowed textbook among readers . This opens with Reacher working as a chucker-out in Key West before learning a hook - handed loan shark is looking to defeat him . Like most of Child ’s work , Tripwireis a slaying mystery where Reacher use his tycoon of deduction and a careful software program of his fists and firearms to figure out the case .

Tripwirewas the firstJack Reachernovel to perfect the series recipe and features a hall - of - fame baddie in " Hook " Hobie , a psychopath with a love of torture . The rootage material would need to be updated for Amazon ’s show , and it might be slow to see Reacher return to New York again so shortly after season 2 . Still , Tripwiretends to top any fan ’s list of preferent books , and it would be great to mate Ritchson ’s Reacher against another great performer as Hobie .

161 Hours

This literally chilling story strands Reacher in a snowy town

The 14th novel61 Hoursplaces Reacher in a singular environment , as he squares off against a vicious biker work party in a white town . Not only would this setting make for a neat ocular contrast betweenReacherseason 3 and the first two series , but the floor itself is full of great action and suspense . Adapting this tale would add another go back supporting player to Amazon ’s serial publication too , with Reacher ’s replacement as head of the 110th Unit , Susan Turner , play an significant role .

Susan Turner was played by Cobie Smulders in Tom Cruise sequel Jack Reacher : Never Go Back .

Adapting61 Hourscould do something unique for Amazon’sReacher , as it would set up the next bookWorth Dying Foras the fourth season , which is put almost immediately after . The mise en scene and reach would make61 Hoursthe most challenging time of year yet and would underline the showrunner ’s commitment to go along it refreshful . Of course , after the antics of the second time of year , they might be look for a smaller - scale book to cut across so audiences do n’t bear each young serial publication to top the one that came before .

Serinda Swan As Karla Dixon, Alan Ritchson as Jack Reacher, and Shaun Sipos as David O’Donnell in Reacher season 2.
