In comments to
The Messenger, Child confirmed that the book for
Reacher season 3 will see Jack Reacher on his own. The executive producer also teased a great opening scene that sets the tone for the upcoming episodes. Read the full quote below:
We've picked it up, it's chosen. It's a good choice, I gotta say. I think we've been very creative about how we've sequenced the type of story.
We felt we needed a book that was more Reacher alone for the third season. And so it was a question of which story would work best for that, and which one would have a great opening scene and all of that, and we found one that we loved.
