Píše se rok 1992. Kapitán Jack Reacher používá při své práci vojenského vyšetřovatele nestandardní, ale velmi účinné metody. Také proto si jej vybere ministr obrany, aby se ve speciální pracovní skupině podílel na vyšetřování série podivných, zdánlivě nesouvisejících úmrtí starších mužů. Jeden záhadně vypadl z nemocničního okna. Druhý požil neobvyklý jed. Další zahynul na jezeře při rybaření. A tím seznam zdaleka nekončí… Reacher ve skupině zastupuje americkou armádu a spolupracuje s agenty FBI, CIA a ministerstva financí. Ukáže se, že všichni mrtví muži jsou spojeni s tragickou událostí, k níž došlo v Indii před třiadvaceti lety – a která se nepřímo týká i ministra obrany a jeho manželky. Pracovní skupina musí prokázat výsledky. A to brzy. Jinak se v této vysoké hře, kterou nedobrovolně hrají, stanou její členové obětními beránky. Reacher to dobře ví, ale nedělá si hlavu ani z politiků, ani z mocenského zákulisí. Chce jenom rychle najít vraha a odhalit tajemství, které stálo život tolik lidí. A tak si nakonec – jako vždycky – poradí po svém. Neobvykle a efektivně. Tajemství je dvacátým osmým svazkem reacherovské série. Počínaje thrillerem Ochránce ji Child píše spolu se svým bratrem Andrewem.

This is a random universe, Reacher says. Once in a blue moon things turn out just right. This isn't one of those times. Reacher is on a Greyhound bus, minding his own business, with no particular place to go, and all the time in the world to get there. Then he steps off the bus to help an old man who is obviously just a victim waiting to happen. But you know what they say about good deeds. Now Reacher wants to make it right. An elderly couple have made a few well-meaning mistakes, and now they owe big money to some very bad people. One brazen move leads to another, and suddenly Reacher finds himself a wanted man in the middle of a brutal turf war between rival Ukrainian and Albanian gangs. Reacher has to stay one step ahead of the loan sharks, the thugs, and the assassins. He teams up with a fed-up waitress who knows a little more than she's letting on, and sets out to take down the powerful and make the greedy pay. It's a long shot. The odds are against him. But Reacher believes in a certain kind of justice ... the kind that comes along once in a blue moon.

THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER Jack Reacher is having a bad day. It would be a dumb idea to make it worse. Reacher sees a West Point class ring in a pawn shop window. It's tiny. It's a woman cadet's graduation present to herself. Why would she give it up? Reacher was a West Pointer too, and he knows what she went through to get it. All he wants is to find the woman. He'll have to go through bikers, cops, crooks, and low-life muscle. If she's ok, he'll walk away. If she's not ... he'll stop at nothing. Best advice: stay out of his way.
