He’ll either sell it or “die trying.”

Jim Grant, author of the popular “Jack Reacher” novels (and best known by his pen name Lee Child), has put his colossal New York City condo on the market for $11 million.

Grant picked up the place in 2014 for $9,150,000.

The four-bedroom, three-bathroom apartment is just steps from Central Park and boasts more than 70 feet of park frontage.

Built in 1906, the property is in one of the city’s most prestigious buildings and comes with a hefty HOA fee of $8,533 a month. Amenities include a full-time doorman, gorgeous lobby, garage, bike room, shared laundry room, and a package room. A new gym is set to open next spring.

Live like royalty

The impressive, king-sized main suite is situated in its own wing. It includes a sitting room, multiple walk-in closets, and an en suite bathroom with a tub, glass shower, and double sinks.

Three more bedrooms are arranged down a private hallway.

Fittingly, the condo includes a library, which could easily be used as an additional guest room instead.
