Jack Ryder Mystery Series: Book 1-3 Kindle Edition
Mystery, love, and action this series has it all.
Another hit series from the Amazon ALL-star Bestselling author Willow Rose.
- HIT THE ROAD JACK:Ben is supposed to be in school. It's Monday morning but his parents are still asleep after a night of heavy drinking. Ben waits patiently, even though he knows he is missing out on today's field trip to the zoo. But, when his black Labrador suddenly runs upstairs and comes down with a finger in his mouth, Ben knows he's not making it to school today at all.
Detective Jack Ryder is chaperoning his kids' field trip when he gets the call from the head of the Cocoa Beach Police Department. A body has been found and they need his help. Soon, Jack finds himself up against a killer, a predator who ruthlessly chases women and kills them so they can never leave him. The case soon causes serious consequences for him and his family once the truth is revealed.
With her new hero, Jack Ryder, as a loving father and committed detective, a new location in tropical Florida, and a story that moves at an incredible pace, Hit the Road Jack is Willow Rose at the top of her game.
- SLIP OUT THE BACK JACK:They take turns with the knife, cutting their thumbs open. A drop of blood lands on the dark wooden table. Eyes meet across the room. All four thumbs are pressed against each other one by one. Blood is shared, secrets buried.
Years later a brutal madman sprays bullets into a crowd at a movie theater in Miami and sends a chill through the entire nation. When human remains are discovered in the dense forest next to a biking trail in Brevard County, it is only the beginning of a series of gruesome murders, which will shock the entire Space Coast.
Detective Jack Ryder is preoccupied with Shannon King and the strange email she has just received that leaves her terrified just as she prepares to go on stage at the Runaway Country Festival. Jack Ryder senses the connection and soon he realizes he is on the hunt for a serial killer with a killing spree that spans over more than a decade.
- THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT:Scott Kingston is afraid of monsters. He thinks they’re lurking outside his bedroom window at night when his mother tucks him in. He asks his mother to keep the light on to scare the monsters away. But that light is exactly what lures the kidnapper to his window and the next morning, Scott Kingston is gone.
Twenty-eight years later, Vernon Johnson is released from jail after spending the biggest part of his life on death row, convicted of having kidnapped and killed Scott Kingston. As so many times before, he has appealed his case, but this time, the judge decides to let him go. A witness has finally told the truth, and there is no longer sufficient evidence to keep him in jail.
But shortly after Vernon Johnson is released and has returned to his childhood town, another child disappears, and soon all eyes are on him again.
Jack Ryder is getting ready to build the house of his dreams while hoping that Shannon won’t end up in jail for the murder her ex-husband committed. She is expecting their child and the pregnancy, along with the worrying, takes a toll on the both of them, especially when a dark secret is revealed about the lot where they are preparing to build their house.

- Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2017Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI thoroughly enjoyed all three stories in this collection. The characters are all imaginative and realistic. The descriptions did a great job on the areas of South Florida where the action takes place. The style of writing was smooth and undemanding, making for an easy read. In all the episodes the action jumps to different characters and times in some paragraphs, making things a little hard to follow because of the number of people involved. I definitely had to pay attention to keep the story sorted out. Some actions carried through all three stories, though each had a definite ending. Because of the different threads that come together in each book it is hard to read the stories in short bursts. Allow enough time to read major portions when you start.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2015Format: KindleVerified PurchasePlots are interesting, like how author goes back and forth in time with what seem to be unrelated incidents and then pulls it all together. Likable hero, cute kids and interesting villains. A major time line discrepancy in the third book with his mother's relationship with Vernon but other than that I highly recommend as a light entertaining read.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2025Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI love these books. The stories are great, and so are the characters. I can’t get enough of the intrigue and all the twists!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2019Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThis Jack Ryder set of Hit The Road Jack is three stories that intertwine beautifully to form a great beginning for the reader to delve into Jacks personal life, friends and family and how their interaction with each other paint a picture of a detective who has worked hard to be where hi is but also show an individual who can be overcome with emotion to the point of throwing away police procedures and putting himself in harm's way to reveal criminal conspiracy. All three books are written with an ending but carry over to the next volume easily. I must admit the third book put my belief on hold in the part that involves his six year old son leaving a coded massage for his dad. I guess this kid has some amazing abilities while others in this age group have problems tying their shoes. But overall it's a great read.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2019Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI like the writing style and these books were full of action and surprises. I'm not a big fan of serial killer mysteries so especially the third book was not my favorite. Overall, the books in this series are easy to read and kept me interested.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2017Format: KindleVerified Purchase'Jack Ryder Mystery Series: Vol 1-3' was such an action packed, on the edge of my seat, gripping, can't-put-down collection. 'Hit the Road Jack', 'Slip Out the Back Jack' and 'The House That Jack Built' were equally intense. As the series played out, it seemed that the storyline grew intensely. Once I started reading, I literally could not put the books down. I loved the characters. Jack is a kind, caring, devoted father and a damn good detective. I have yet to find a story by Willow Rose that I didn't absolutely love. Her mind is one scary place, but man can she come up with some great stories. I look forward to reading more of this series. A great add to your tbr list.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2023Format: KindleVerified PurchaseGreat characters. Good stories. For my taste, a little too twisted. Some of the subplots are pretty sick, and the back and forth in time makes this hard to follow unless you don’t do anything but read.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2020Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI thoroughly enjoyed the first three Jack Ryder books. It truly kept me on my toes. So much going on and so much to see (read) HA. I was brought into the world of suspense, intrigue and mystery. I could hardly put it down. My spare time, after dealing with the household, was with these books. I would highly recommend them to all my friends. Thanks for the ride. On to the next ride, I have my ticket.

E. BennettReviewed in the United Kingdom on May 14, 20195.0 out of 5 stars Riveting read
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseWillow Rose is the top in her class, none of her books have disappointed me yet and this one is no different.
The plot is well thought out and easy to follow.
Jack Ryder is a determined detective and also a single parent to his three kids.
I found the character easy to like and the story line addictive, I couldn't stop reading these books until I had completed them all.
I highly recommend the Jack Ryder books and can't wait to read the next.
