Step by step, the two teams circle - waiting to see which will be the first to walk onto the killing floor. But closing in on him is a team of killers. With two cops who believe in him - a thoughtful black detective and a woman named Roscoe - he closes in on a ruthless conspiracy hiding behind Margrave's rural charm. When authorities learn the first victim was someone from Reacher's past, and he cannot convince them of his innocence, his patient self-defense becomes a raging crusade of revenge. But Reacher is a tough ex-military policeman, trained to think fast and act faster. The easiest suspect is Jack Reacher - an outsider, a man just passing through. Then a bank executive disappears from his home, leaving his keys on the table and his wife frozen with fear. The police chief and his wife are butchered on a quiet Sunday morning. An unidentified man is found beaten and shot to death on a lonely country road. The sleepy, forgotten town of Margrave, Georgia, hasn't seen a crime in decades, but within the span of three days it witnesses events that leave everyone stunned. But he doesn’t stand a chance of convincing anyone. All Reacher knows is that he didn’t kill anybody. He’s just passing through Margrave, Georgia, and in less than an hour, he’s arrested for murder.
Ex-military policeman Jack Reacher is a drifter.
