Reacher helpt een handje, maar als ze zich omdraaien kijken ze recht in de loop van twee revolvers. Drieduizend kilometer later zitten ze vast in een geheim kamp in het uitgestrekte noorden van Montana. De vrouw zegt dat ze Holly Johnson heet en FBI-agent is. Holly heeft lef, ze is sterk, maar de doorgewinterde Reacher voelt dat er meer achter steekt.

Jack Reacher sa po náročnej ceste konečne dostáva do svojho cieľa v severovýchodnej Virgínii: do hlavného stanu svojho starého pôsobiska, sto desiatej jednotky vojenskej polície. Chladná kamenná budova preňho znamená jediný domov, aký kedy mal. Už dlho sa túžil osobne stretnúť s novou veliacou dôstojníčkou, majorkou Susan Turnerovou, ktorú dovtedy poznal len v podobe vzrušujúceho hlasu z telefónu.
Na jeho nemilé prekvapenie však za veliteľským stolom žiadna žena nesedí. A na Reachera tu navyše čakajú dve mimoriadne nepríjemné správy – jedna veľmi osobná a jedna, ktorá by ho mohla poslať do väzenia.
Čo sa stalo so Susan Turnerovou? A ako sa dostať z kolotoča obvinení? Na to musí Jack prísť za každú cenu.

It wasn't the welcome Reacher expected. He was just passing through, minding his own business. But within minutes of his arrival a deputy is in the hospital and Reacher is back in Hope, setting up a base of operations against Despair, where a huge, seething walled-off industrial site does something nobody is supposed to see ... where a small plane takes off every night and returns seven hours later ... where a garrison of well-trained and well-armed military cops --the kind of soldiers Reacher once commanded--waits and watches ... where above all two young men have disappeared and two frightened young women wait and hope for their return. Joining forces with a beautiful cop who runs Hope with a cool hand, Reacher goes up against Despair--against the deputies who try to break him and the rich man who tries to scare him--and starts to crack open the secrets, starts to expose the terrifying connection to a distant war that's killing Americans by the thousand.
Jack Reacher, de loner zonder baan, zonder paspoort en zonder adres, wordt benaderd door de aantrekkelijke M.I. Froelich - roepnaam Froelich. Froelich is sinds kort hoofd van de Secret Service. En ze heeft een probleem: iemand dreigt de Amerikaanse vice-president te vermoorden. Reacher biedt aan haar te helpen en treedt vervolgens toe tot de Secret Service, waar hij behoorlijk uit de toon valt. Instinctief verzet hij zich tegen de bureaucratie en de vooroordelen die er gemeengoed zijn. Reachers boerenslimheid, ruwe charme en eigengereidheid passen helemaal niet bij de starre organisatie. Maar tegen een sluipmoordenaar zonder gezicht komen deze eigenschappen buitengewoon goed van pas... 'In feite doet hij precies waar iedereen wel eens van droomt.' Auteur Lee Child over zijn held Jack Reacher
Jack Reacher is even intrigerend als onderhoudend, even spannend als verslavend. Mannen willen hem zijn en vrouwen willen hem hebben. Reacher is op weg naar Langley, naar het hoofdkwartier van de CIA. Zijn oude afdeling daar heeft een nieuwe leider. Ze heet Susan en hij wil haar ontmoeten. Onderweg door Nebraska struikelt Reacher echter over een lokaal drama: een familie met een transportbedrijf houdt de omwonende boerengezinnen in een stalen greep van angst.
Margrave, Georgia. Op een eenzame landweg wordt een man doodgeschoten. Op een kalme zondagochtend worden de commissaris van politie en zijn vrouw afgeslacht. Vlak daarna verdwijnt de bankmanager spoorloos... De verdachte is Jack Reacher, een buitenstaander op doorreis. Maar Reacher is niet de eerste de beste landloper. Als voormalig lid van de militaire politie is hij getraind om snel te denken en nog sneller te handelen. Hij heeft geleegd met en gejaagd op het ergste uitschot dat er bestaat: de harde jongens uit het Amerikaanse leger die het verkeerde pad op zijn gegaan. Nu wordt er op Reacher zelf gejaagd. Door de politie, die niet gelooft dat hij onschuldig is, en door een ploeg vrijwel onzichtbare, maar uiterst efficiënte moordenaars...
You can leave the army, but the army doesn’t leave you. Not always. Not completely, notes Jack Reacher—and sure enough, the retired military cop is soon pulled back into service. This time, for the State Department and the CIA.Someone has taken a shot at the president of France in the City of Light. The bullet was American. The distance between the gunman and the target was exceptional. How many snipers can shoot from three-quarters of a mile with total confidence? Very few, but John Kott—an American marksman gone bad—is one of them. And after fifteen years in prison, he’s out, unaccounted for, and likely drawing a bead on a G8 summit packed with enough world leaders to tempt any assassin.If anyone can stop Kott, it’s the man who beat him before: Reacher. And though he’d rather work alone, Reacher is teamed with Casey Nice, a rookie analyst who keeps her cool with Zoloft. But they’re facing a rough road, full of ruthless mobsters, Serbian thugs, close calls, double-crosses—and no backup if they’re caught. All the while Reacher can’t stop thinking about the woman he once failed to save. But he won’t let that that happen again. Not this time. Not Nice.Reacher never gets too close. But now a killer is making it personal.
