This is book one in a five book series and reading each one has been a real treat. It is true that each of these books can be read independently as the author covers essential information very effectively. However, I feel that the best experience is to read the books in order and that the best book to start with is not book one, but the book that precedes the series: And Then She Was Gone. This initial storyline sets the scene for the whole series and introduces Jack Stratton as a young eighteen year old. It narrates his early life, his friends, relationships and family and this background permeates the five following books and makes the reader instinctively understand, and feel involved with, the characters development and why they act and react to situations. This series is a must, in my opinion, it has drama, humour, action, mystery and romance....what more could anyone ask for. My hope is that the author is writing book six....My thanks to Christopher Greyson for such an enjoyable and memorable series. Review: A crime thriller set in the USA featuring a damaged hero, an intriguing cast of characters and action aplenty. - If you enjoy crime thrillers set in the USA that feature loads of action, a damaged hero and a cast of characters, many of whom have atypical character traits, then this book should appeal. If, on the other hand, you prefer crime thrillers that focus more on atmosphere and which have a particularly complex plot, then you may find this novel less to your tastes. Girl Jacked is the second novel I have read that features Jack Stratton as the central character, and in many respects it is better than its prequel 'And Then She Was GONE'. Jack is now a police officer but he remains a very troubled soul. In this story we discover, through flashbacks, more about his time in the US Army when he was stationed in Iraq. Now, back in the USA, he is either suffering from a PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) or he has certain personality traits that make him a slightly unpleasant and unstable individual - I prefer to see him as suffering with PTSD! A number of the other characters that feature in the prequel are present in this story, but they are now several years older. As with Jack, many of them have unresolved problems that result in atypical behaviour. The story opens with Haddie Williams reporting to the police the disappearance of her foster daughter Michelle. Unfortunately as Michelle is an adult, the police do not take Haddie's concerns too seriously, so she calls on Jack, who she had fostered for a while and who knew Michelle, to see if he can help find Michelle. The problem is that if he gets involved in an official capacity then his involvement would create a conflict of interest, so he initially goes about it as surreptitiously as possible. The plot basically follows Jack's investigation. He is aided and abetted by Alice who goes by the name of 'Replacement' (you have to read the prequel to fully understand why she prefers to use this name rather than Alice). Between them they get into lots of scrapes and one has to suspend belief about the amazing healing & recuperative powers of their bodies! The story is a little slow and tedious at first but I was flying through the pages by the 75% mark as the action by this point comes thick and fast. In fact many of the 'action' scenes are described so well, they are quite easy to visualise. As I mentioned earlier, there are quite a number of characters in the story to keep track of, something which I found a little challenging. So, if you enjoy your crime fiction to contain lots of action, a flawed and seemingly indestructible hero and a hint of romance, then this novel may well appeal ... and to fully enjoy it you will also need to suspend belief and remember it is a work of fiction! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 1492707872 | | Best Sellers Rank | 4,470 in Crime, Thriller & Mystery Series 4,698 in Crime, Thriller & Mystery Anthologies 6,293 in Crime, Thriller & Mystery Short Stories | | Book 1 of 11 | Detective Jack Stratton Mystery Thriller Series | | Customer reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (19,707) | | Dimensions | 12.7 x 1.52 x 20.32 cm | | Edition | First Edition | | ISBN-10 | 9781492707875 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1492707875 | | Item weight | 286 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 262 pages | | Publication date | 1 Aug. 2013 | | Publisher | CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform | ## Images ![Girl Jacked: Volume 1 (Detective Jack Stratton Mystery Thriller Series) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61vbi12YbvL.jpg) ![Girl Jacked: Volume 1 (Detective Jack Stratton Mystery Thriller Series) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Nj+xmxfRL.jpg) ![Girl Jacked: Volume 1 (Detective Jack Stratton Mystery Thriller Series) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/312JCvh35YL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply Wonderful *by M***S on 8 January 2017* I simply loved this series and can not praise the storyline and writing enough.

Worth more than 5 stars. Jack and "Replacement" are wonderful real life characters. Police work, slightly outside the bounds of the rules, but very good for all that. Kidnap and murder are the main problems but when a relation is involved it most certainly becomes PERSONAL FOR Jack and he just doesn't stop. Yes I would recommend it to anyone, especially Lee Child readers. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/53480855-girl-jacked-volume-1-detective-jack-stratton-mystery-thriller-series](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/53480855-girl-jacked-volume-1-detective-jack-stratton-mystery-thriller-series) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
