A Stranger Arrives in a Town Frozen in Fear
In the desolate cornfields of Nebraska, Jack Reacher steps into a forgotten town with nothing but the clothes on his back and a nagging pain in his shoulder. At the Apollo Inn-a retro motel with faded space-themed decor-he becomes reluctantly entangled in the town's dark affairs when a desperate call comes in about a woman with a nosebleed. The local doctor, drunk and belligerent, refuses to help until Reacher physically forces him into action. What Reacher discovers at Eleanor Duncan's home isn't a simple nosebleed, but the unmistakable evidence of domestic abuse at the hands of her husband, Seth Duncan. With the straightforward moral clarity that defines him, Reacher tracks down Seth at the local steakhouse and delivers swift justice-a single, precise punch that breaks the man's nose. "How do you like it?" he asks before walking away. What seems like a simple act of retribution is actually the first domino in a sequence that will tear apart the town's entire power structure. What Reacher doesn't yet understand is that he has just challenged the Duncan family-four generations of men who have controlled this farming community for decades through fear, intimidation, and economic leverage. Their trucking business holds a monopoly on transporting local harvests, giving them absolute power over the community's survival. As the motel owner later explains: "You can work all year, but you need your harvest trucked away, or it's the same as growing nothing."
