Cleaning the Gold Audiobook Summary

THE NEW SHORT STORY FROM KARIN SLAUGHTER AND LEE CHILD!

Jack Reacher and Will Trent

Twice the action.

Twice the drama.

Double the trouble.

Will Trent is undercover at Fort Knox. His assignment: to investigate a twenty-two-year-old murder. His suspect’s name: Jack Reacher.

Jack Reacher is in Fort Knox on his own mission: to bring down a dangerous criminal ring operating at the heart of America’s military. Except now Will Trent is on the scene.

But there’s a bigger conspiracy at play – one that neither the special agent nor the ex-military cop could have anticipated. And the only option is for Jack Reacher and Will Trent to team up and play nicely. If they can…

I’ll read ANYTHING that includes Will Trent!! I love that guy, I know I’ve said this before but he’s by far one of my favorite book characters. I’m not too familiar with Jack Reacher, based on this story he was a likable character. The writing and story were good, entertaining enough. And let me just say that perhaps they should have chosen someone other than Tom Cruise to play him. He’s got the personality down but the physicality is WAY off!!! (I needed to include that last bit. LOL)

Very intersecting combo of characters. On the one hand, we have Will Trent, the tall, three-piece suit FBI agent who had a tough upbringing but is very smart. On the other hand, you have Jack Reacher, an ex-military man with his own compass for right and wrong. Will and Jack are brought together into Fort Knox for very different reasons. Will is looking into a cold case and Jack is investigating into some funny business inside Fort Knox. Will doesn’t know if he can trust Jack and vice-versa until a new problem surfaces for both. I’m a HUGE Will Trent fan. He’s perfectly imperfect. Good detective skills, strong and smart with a good heart. He loves the law and he's great with numbers.Jack Reacher is a smart person too. He’s super strong and deadly. Yet, he’s guided by justice. He's actually taller than Will!Quite a lot of fun to have these two worlds colliding. I’m sure Slaughter and Child had a blast writing it. I've to admit (don't kill me) that I haven't read any of Jack Reacher's books (I've seen the movies with Tom Cruise). After, reading Cleaning the Gold, I need to carve some time for this Lee Child's series.Cliffhanger: No4/5 FangsMrsLeif's Two Fangs About It | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram

2 4 1This is such a treat, when you get 2 of your favourite characters from different authors, in one story. The only downside, is it it's a short story. If only this was a full length novel.Will Trent and Jack Reacher, are two different characters,with different backgrounds and skill sets. It could of gone horribly wrong, but it didn't, not surprising, when you have two fantastic authors working together as one.

Cleaning the Gold is a return to form for Jack Reacher after the abysmal book that was 'Past Tense'.I have to admit first that as of writing this review, this is the first Will Trent/Karin Slaughter book that I am reading. And I am quite impressed with both the character as well as the writing style demonstrated in this book. So, watch out, Will Trent, I am going to binge read you.That aside, I found the story to be quite good, the action great and the interactions between the main characters to be fun and involving. While Lee Child continues the tradition of making Jack Reacher into a superman, it is not so pronounced in this book (when compared to the last 2-3 books). I am not sure how much influence the collaboration had on this factor, but it is for the best since Jack Reacher is suddenly becoming interesting again.The only issue I had with this story is its super abrupt ending. I literally went back and forth to make sure that the story was not missing pages or that I had not skipped any by mistake. Other reviewers are also commenting on this and I think this will end up being the most disappointing aspect of the book.I highly recommend 'Cleaning the Gold.'

Cleaning the Gold by Karin Slaughter and Lee Child is the merge of the Jack Reacher series and the Will Trent series. My beloved Will Trent is going undercover again. This time it takes him across state lines to investigate a cold case murder. The suspect: Jack Reacher. Turns out Jack Reacher is under assignment as well. Their worlds collide when some red flags present themselves at Fort Knox.Let’s call this a mini-review. This is a short story, it moves extremely quickly. I am not familiar with the Jack Reacher series but I did like the teamwork between him and Will. I love how Will keeps an open mind and is willing to listen to those around him before going solely off the evidence. The only downfall is that this book ends on a huge cliffhanger! I am also assuming that the questions will be answered in the next Jack Reacher book and not in Karin Slaughter’s next book. However, the story is always filled with suspense and criminal mystery. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

Lee Child's Jack Reacher & Karin Slaughter's Will Trent meet in a neat little story set in Fort Knox. Although I've read all the Jack Reacher stories I have never read a Karin Slaughter novel, but this didn't spoil my enjoyment of this thriller.Being a James Bond fan I loved the two main characters discussing Goldfinger & even quoting from the film at one point. There may not be as much action as you usually find in a Reacher story, but the plot was well executed & the ending nudged it up from a 4 star review to a 5 star one.

Detective Will Trent is on an undercover assignment. He's searching for a suspect in a long-ago murder of a cop. His quarry is working at Fort Knox, where Jack just got a job. Now all he has to do is get some DNA from the suspect...Jack Reacher. Jack is on his own mission at Fort Knox. He is looking for evidence of a criminal ring working out of this location. Eventually the two band together to bring down a criminal organization.This novella puts together Will Trent and Jack Reacher. I liked the plot. I just wish the story had been longer. My rating: 3.5 Stars.

4 Stars for Cleaning the Gold (audiobook) by Karin Slaughter and Lee Child read by Eric Jason Martin and Jeff Harding. Will Trent is investigating Jack Reacher at Fort Knox. What a crazy situation, but it’s fun to see these two characters thrown together.

So GOOD! I wish this novella was longer. A Will Trent book can never be long enough, in my opinion! I haven’t previously read anything by Lee Child, but really liked the complex Jack Reacher character portrayed in Cleaning the Gold, and will add the series to my want to read list.

Two of my favorite authors bring two of my favorite characters ever together in a short story jam-packed with good-to-know details and suspense. Part of the case stems from an event in Reacher's past, and Trent is undercover & hot on his trail...even as Reacher is undercover working another case. Loved this novella with Trent & Reacher! I just wish it was a full length book! Oh the possibilities! Think about it Slaughter & Child! A Must Read!

Great collaboration by two outstanding authors! Even though this is a novella, I thoroughly enjoyed the pairing of these two characters - Jack Reacher and Will Trent. At first I thought I would be able to tell which author wrote what - nope, the authors melded their works perfectly. A guessing game for the most part as to what exactly Reacher was looking for/investigating, that part isn't revealed until much later although there are a couple of hints which I missed since it's been a while since I have read the whole series. Will's part is straight forward - he's on a mission to locate Jack and arrest him - there is a twist there!2 thumbs up and 5 solid starts - love this novellaFrom the blurb: Twice the action.Twice the drama.Double the trouble.
