Jack Reacher jumps off a bus and walks fourteen miles down a country road into Margrave, Georgia. An arbitrary decision he's about to regret. Reacher is the only stranger in town on the day they have had their first homicide in thirty years.The cops arrest Reacher and the police chief turns eyewitness to place him at the scene. As nasty secrets leak out, and the body count mounts, one thing is for sure. They picked the wrong guy to take the fall.

Media Reviews
'Great style and careful plotting... Depicted with the kind of detail that builds dread and suspense.' New York Times
'Beautifully detailed action scenes and fascinating arcana about currency and counterfeiting enliven this taut and tough-minded first novel... Child writes with a hand as strong and steady as steel.' Publishers' Weekly
At least as good as any of Grisham's. * Cork Examiner *
Stunningly dynamic * Daily Mail *
The best thriller I've read in years * New Statesman *
