Near Margrave, Georgia, a man later identified as Joe Reacher is shot at midnight. The next morning, Jack Reacher arrives on a Greyhound bus and heads into town, where he is arrested for murder in a diner. He is taken to jail along with Paul Hubble, a banker who falsely confessed to the murder. The corrupt guard Spivey puts the two in the general ward, where Reacher brutally foils an assassination attempt. Hubble explains that he confessed to cover for a criminal organization that would otherwise have killed him and his family. After his release, Reacher is verbally threatened in town by the son of local inmate Kliner. When he later returned to the police station, he learns of a second murder. At the morgue, a discussion about the recent murder and another murder earlier in the week leads him to identify the first victim as his older brother Joe.
