Per Goodreads here is a synopsis for the first novel in the series if you needed some context/information. This is not related to the series adaptation. There were also two feature films based on the Jack Reacher character that starred Tom Cruise.

Ex-military policeman Jack Reacher is a drifter. He's just passing through Margrave, Georgia, and in less than an hour, he's arrested for murder. Not much of a welcome. All Jack knows is that he didn't kill anybody. At least not here. Not lately. But he doesn't stand a chance of convincing anyone. not in Margrave, Georgia. Not a chance in hell.
