Killing Floor is the initial book in the internationally popular Jack Reacher series. It presents Reacher for the first time, as the hard ex-military cop of no fixed abode: a righter of wrongs, the perfect action hero.

Jack Reacher jumps off a bus and strolls fourteen miles straight down a country street into Margrave, Georgia. An arbitrary decision he’s going to repent. Reacher is the only stranger around on the day they have had their first homicide in thirty years. The cops arrest Reacher and the police chief becomes eyewitness to put him on the scene.

Mainly because nasty secrets drip out, and the body count mounts, a very important factor is for sure. They picked the incorrect guy to take the fall.
