Doch jetzt kommt der rastlose Einzelgänger freiwillig aus der Deckung. Durch puren Zufall ist er einem Mann begegnet, den er seit zehn Jahren für tot gehalten hat. Die Narben auf dessen Stirn erinnern Reacher an sein furchtbarstes Erlebnis, und er weiß: Noch immer geht von dem Janusmann eine tödliche Gefahr aus.

It's 1996, and Reacher is still in the army. In the morning they give him a medal, and in the afternoon they send him back to school. That night he's off the grid. Out of sight, out of mind. Two other men are in the classroom - an FBI agent and a CIA analyst. Each is a first-rate operator, each is fresh off a big win, and each is wondering what the hell they are doing there. Then they find out: A Jihadist sleeper cell in Hamburg, Germany, has received an unexpected visitor - a Saudi courier.

Reacher is on a Greyhound bus, minding his own business, with no particular place to go and all the time in the world to get there. Then, he steps off the bus to help an old man who is obviously just a victim waiting to happen. But you know what they say about good deeds. Now, Reacher wants to make it right. An elderly couple have made a few well-meaning mistakes, and now they owe big money to some very bad people. One brazen move leads to another, and suddenly Reacher finds himself a wanted man in the middle of a brutal turf war between rival Ukrainian and Albanian gangs.

“Why is this town called Mother’s Rest?” That’s all Reacher wants to know. But no one will tell him.

Jack Reacher has no place to go and all the time in the world to get there, so a remote railroad stop on the prairie with the curious name of Mother's Rest seems perfect for an aimless one-day stopover. He expects to find a lonely pioneer tombstone in a sea of nearly ripe wheat...but instead there is a woman waiting for a missing colleague, a cryptic note about 200 deaths, and a small town full of silent, watchful people.

En el mismo autobús viaja un anciano, que lleva un sobre abultado con dinero en uno de sus bolsillos.
