We’ve just heard that the second season of the Jack Reacher TV series Reacher will be based on Lee Child’s book ‘Bad Luck and Trouble’, actually the eleventh book in the Reacher series first published in 2007.
According to Wikipedia, the title comes from the song lyrics by singer Albert King “Born Under a Bad Sign” and has a synopsis which is the following [from Amazon].
Reacher himself, Alan Ritchson revealed the news on his Twitter.
“O’Donnell put his hand in his pocket and came out with his brass knuckles. Ceramic knuckles, technically.”

That’s right, season 2 of #ReacherOnPrime will be based on Bad Luck and Trouble (Jack Reacher, #11), written by the legendary Lee Child.

You DO NOT MESS with the Special Investigators!
The events of 9/11 changed Jack Reacher’s drifter life in a practical way. In addition to his folding toothbrush, he now needs to carry photo ID to get around. Yet he is still as close to untraceable as a human being in America can get.
So when a member of his old Army unit manages to get a message to him, he knows it has to be deadly serious. The Special Investigators always watched each other’s backs. Now Reacher must put the old unit back together. Someone has killed one of them, and he can’t let that go.
Shooting on the new season kicks off later this year presumably for a 2023 debut.
