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.

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.

Een oud-militair probeert samen met enkele leden van zijn oude legereenheid te achterhalen wie een van zijn oude vrienden om het leven heeft gebracht.

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.

A tour bus crashes in a savage snowstorm and lands Jack Reacher in the middle of a deadly confrontation. In nearby Bolton, South Dakota, one brave woman is standing up for justice in a small town threatened by sinister forces--and Reacher will risk his own to save her from a coldly proficient assassin who never misses.

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

Watching one of his fellow-passengers, he becomes sharply aware: one by one, she ticks off every bulletpoint on his list. So begins the new heartstopping new thriller starring today's most admired action hero, the gallant and enigmatic loner Jack Reacher.
