Safe enough [large print] : and other stories / Lee Child.

Child, Lee, (author.).

Summary:

"Throughout his career, Lee Child published tales about a range of characters on both sides of the law. Packed with action and suspense, the stories show the author's mastery of the short form, and they've never been collected before now. Together, these stories are a riotous calamity of criminals and crime fighters; individually, they are piercing tales that hit hard enough to leave a mark. These twenty intriguing, thrilling, and rapid-fire fictions are sure to please new and longtime fans. Featuring an introduction from the author, the collection stands as the first book written entirely by Child in three years."-- Back cover.
