The Secret de Lee Child, Andrew Child: Jack Reacher, Book 28

Bantam. Paperback. NEW. In the year 1992, a shocking incident takes place in a hospital in Chicago. A patient, whose identity remains unknown, wakes up to discover two unfamiliar faces standing beside his bed. The strangers present him with a puzzling list of names, asking him an impossible question. Tragically, moments later, the patient plummets to his death from the twelfth floor of the hospital building, attracting attention from unexpected quarters. The Secretary of Defense promptly intervenes, sensing the gravity of the situation, and calls for an inter-agency task force to investigate the mysterious circumstances surrounding the patient's demise. To represent the Army in this crucial investigation, Jack Reacher, a former Major who had recently been demoted, is appointed. Although Reacher has proven himself to be a skilled military investigator, his demotion suggests that he is being set up as a scapegoat in case the investigation fails to yield results. Reacher, however, is not motivated by office politics; what truly drives him is his innate sense of justice. As he unravels the threads of the complex case, he finds himself surrounded by new colleagues. Navigating the murky waters of inter-agency collaborations becomes an additional challenge for Reacher, but he remains focused on unearthing the truth behind the cold-blooded killing and unveiling a decades-old secret that has remained hidden for twenty-three years. Will Reacher follow the official path to bring the perpetrators to justice, or will he forge his own unconventional way? This question hangs in the air as Reacher races against time to solve the puzzle. His relentless pursuit of the truth compels him to dig deep into the past and confront the dangerous forces that would rather keep their secrets buried.
