Lee Child, the acclaimed author of the Jack Reacher thriller series, has unveiled his luxurious home in the Wyoming town he bought with his brother Andrew.
Child, 68, also known as James Dover Grant, is from Coventry and later Birmingham in Britain but has made the US his home since moving there in 1998.
After achieving enormous success with his writing, Child and his brother purchased the entire town of Tie Siding, Wyoming.
They now live in beautiful adjoining homes, both of which are worth more than $1 million, according to estimates from real estate website Zillow.
Both homes have four bedrooms and four bathrooms, spread over more than 4,000 square feet.

The neighboring homes, in the foothills of the Rockies, are hidden by a long dirt road.

The kitchen also has natural stone, finished with marble.
The house has a wrap-around veranda on both the first and second floors.
Their land borders a nature reserve and is filled with wildlife. Moose look through their windows occasionally, Andrew told the Washington Post.
‘I love the outdoors. I’m not a big participant in it. I mean, I’m going for a walk, I like to get away from it all. And I certainly enjoy watching it,” Lee said.
“It helps you get over your suburban or urban perfectionism.”
The brothers also share a warehouse where they store their cars, including Andrew’s yellow electric pickup and Lee’s Chevy.

Child also addressed the controversy that arose after he left the Reacher series after the 24th book, and allowed his brother to take over writing it in the future.
Explaining the moment he realized he didn’t want to write more of the series, he said, “It could have just been a momentary, passing feeling.”
“But it happened twice,” he said, “and I thought, don’t try to bulldoze through it. Don’t ignore it. Don’t make excuses for yourself. This is what you were worried about.”
