Auf dem Weg von Tampa nach nirgendwo ist Jack Reacher in einer Kleinstadt in Georgia aus dem Bus gestiegen. Wenige Stunden später findet er sich im Gefängnis wieder. Er steht unter Mordverdacht. Doch statt einer schnellen Lösung hat Detective Finlay bald ein noch größeres Problem: einen Hauptverdächtigen, der seine Unschuld beweisen kann, und das Geständnis eines Bankers, der die Tat nicht begangen hat.
The very first book by number one bestseller Lee Child, which introduces his iconic hero Jack Reacher.
Killing Floor is the first book in the internationally popular series about Jack Reacher, hero of the blockbuster movie starring Tom Cruise. It presents Reacher for the first time, as the tough ex-military cop of no fixed abode: a righter of wrongs, the perfect action hero.
Jack Reacher jumps off a bus and walks fourteen miles down a country road into Margrave, Georgia. An arbitrary decision he's about to regret.
Reacher is the only stranger in town on the day they have had their first homicide in thirty years.The cops arrest Reacher and the police chief turns eyewitness to place him at the scene. As nasty secrets leak out, and the body count mounts, one thing is for sure.
They picked the wrong guy to take the fall.
