Publisher's Synopsis
1992. Eight respectable people have been found dead across the US. The fatalities resemble accidents and don't appear to be connected. Until one body - the victim of a fall from a hospital window - generates some unexpected attention from the Secretary of Defense, who calls for an inter-agency task force to investigate. Jack Reacher is assigned as the Army's representative. He may be an exceptional soldier, but sweeping other people's secrets under the carpet isn't part of his skill set. As he races to discover the link between the victims and who killed them, he must navigate around the ulterior motives of his new partners. And all while moving into the sight line of some of the most dangerous people he has ever encountered. His mission is to uncover the truth. The question is: will Reacher bring the bad guys to justice the official way...or his way?
