61 hours ended with the maverick loner Jack Reacher trapped in a desperate situation from which escape seemed impossible, even for him. But Reacher has accomplished the impossible before. Now there are deadly problems in the vastness of Nebraska, and Reacher finds himself right in the middle of it. First, he clashes with the Duncans, a local clan that has brought an entire county to its knees. But it is the unresolved case of a missing eight-year-old girl, which has lingered for decades, that Reacher cannot let go of. Bruised and injured, Reacher should have just moved on. But for Reacher, that was impossible.
