Veteran Avenue: A twisting thriller perfect for Jack Reacher fans

A friend’s violent death and a haunting childhood memory send an aimless ex-soldier back into fighting mode, in this thriller by “a writer to watch” (Time Out).

1978. While on holiday in America, British eight-year-old John Frears is befriended by a stranger in the Oregon wilderness and stolen away from his parents. After a bizarre hour spent in a log cabin, he is sent away carrying a picture of a young girl.

2013. Since leaving the military, John Frears has been drifting, unable to settle. When he hears his friend Donnie Chester was shot and killed, he feels compelled to travel to Los Angeles for the funeral.

As John slowly becomes entangled with his friend’s grieving sister, and a desperate, disillusioned LAPD cop, his life becomes more complicated than he could have imagined. And when the mysterious event from his past crashes into the present, it could mean the difference between life and death . . .
