Cinque persone vengono uccise apparentemente a caso da un cecchino, sulla banchina di un fiume, mentre conducono la vita di tutti i giorni. Le prove sono schiaccianti e incastrano un ex militare, un tiratore addestrato. Pestato brutalmente durante l'interrogatorio, prima di cadere in coma, l'accusato fa un solo nome: Jeack Reacher. L'avvocato difensore non sa come soddisfare la richiesta, Reacher sembra non esistere, ma ecco che è lui stesso a presentarsi, con una teoria a dir poco spiazzante: il militare è colpevole, ma non di quell'eccidio.
