Nella tranquilla cittadina di Gerrardsville, sotto il cielo azzurro del Colorado, una donna muore investita da un autobus. La polizia archivia il caso come suicidio, ma qualcosa non torna. E lo sa bene Jack Reacher, che ha assistito alla scena e ha visto un uomo muoversi furtivamente, spingere la donna sotto le ruote del mezzo e afferrare la sua borsa. Poco dopo, un’altra morte sospetta viene classificata come naturale e Reacher comincia a credere che non si tratti di una coincidenza.

Mi guardo intorno e vedo il nulla. Proprio ciò che cercavo. Questa cittadina di confine non ha niente da offrire: nessun negozio decente, nemmeno un posto dove bere un buon caffè. Qui non ci viene nessuno in vacanza: qui ci si arriva solo se si ha un motivo. Io un motivo ce l’ho. E se non ce l’ho, lo trovo. Sempre. Per questo, quando osservo la scena che ho di fronte, non posso non farmi qualche domanda. Una strada deserta dell’Arizona, un fuoristrada schiantato contro l’unico albero nel raggio di miglia e miglia, nessuna traccia del guidatore. Domande che esigono una risposta.
