About this listen

The Navy SEALs trained him.

A secret unit of the NCIS recruited him.

Enemies fear him.

For elite undercover operative Jack Widow, the news that someone shot his mother, a small-town sheriff, will unleash him in number one best-selling author Scott Blade's explosive series starter.

Pulled off an undercover assignment, Widow returns home to a small town in Mississippi - a place he tried to forget.

Taken to be a worthless drifter by the locals, Widow uses his skills to uncover the truth about his mother's last investigation. What was she looking for?

What he discovers is an unsolved mystery of missing girls and townspeople harboring a deadly secret - a secret they'll die to protect.

Good thing that Jack Widow will kill to find out what.

Fans of Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan, Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp, and Mark Greaney's The Gray Man series will love the Jack Widow action-thriller-mystery series.

If gripping thrillers loaded with mystery, suspense, action, twists, and turns is your thing, then Jack Widow is for you!

Listen to international best seller Scott Blade's first explosive book in the Jack Widow series today.

From the first chapter it was as if the main character was telling us he was Jack Reachers son, that Reacher didnt know about. And then had an adventure that was like a clone of Reacher.

Having said that, it is still a good story. I shall look for others by this author. :)

Is Scott Blade aka Lee Child?

Who cares about the Jack Reacher comparisons. We all want more Reacher books but that’s not happening as it used to so it’s great to discover some Reacher-a-like stories. I’ll definitely be lining up the next in the series… great to see the author writes fast so there are plenty in store, yay!

Absolutely great! 100mph thriller with all you could want

for either a SEAL, or Special Ops member, he made too many Rookie mistakes. some of it was good, but overall, not believable.

incongruity

Everything was a bit convenient for Jack Widow - like a gun store under the burning barn he was locked in. I listened all the way through. It won’t win any awards for literature but it was easy to listen to.

Not Bad

Reacher would be disappointed with how slow his alleged offspring connected the dots; overall it came down nicely

he needs to wisen up

A good character

I enjoyed the book but it felt like a cheap knock off of a Reacher novel. Widow is a great character. The archetypal “Batman”. The overall plot is good but the pace is slow and frustrating at times with too much dialogue and rumination. A few glaring inconsistencies also frustrated. Enjoyable nonetheless.

Worth a listen but…

First off I have to say Alan Phillip Ormond voice is perfect for this brilliant thriller. Very smooth and easy to listen to .


This is the first book in this great series. Jack Widow , is an NCIS agent , who has ben under cover many times. He has to go home , as his mother, who is a sheriff and has now been shoot. Reaching her in time to say goodbye and make peace .

But now wanting to know who shot his mother, who was looking into missing girls...

This book is set at a lovely pace, with characters who you enjoy and feel as if you know.

Does he get his man...... with his training , I think you know the answer. You will enjoy the ride.

Loved this book

Jack Widow is a good character, however if I was Lee Child I would be pretty peed off. Widow is almost a replica of Reacher. Both drifters, both big guys, both former military cops, both carry a toothbrush and passport and both right wrongs.

Jack Widow or Jack Reacher
