The studio originally considered adapting "61 Hours," the fourteenth novel in the "Jack Reacher" book series, as the second film. However, according to Lee Child, the main challenge was the practical complexity to set a thousand miles of snow in South Dakota to accommodate the winter setting. After seeing a copy of the novel "Never Go Back" (2013) during the book's release, they decided to settle on this book because "the character of Samantha forms a three-hander in audience appeal, i.e. Jack, Susan and Sam who are interested with the pair." Child also added that if there would be a third film, the studio (around 2011) had already decided to use "Bad Luck and Trouble" (2007; Book 11), as "they feel they would be ready for an ensemble piece."
