Personal

Someone has tried to kill the French president. How many snipers can shoot from three-quarters of a mile with total confidence? John Kott--a U.S. Army marksman gone bad--is one of them. After fifteen years in prison, he's out . . . and there's a G8 summit coming up, packed with enough world leaders to tempt any assassin.

If anyone can stop Kott, it's the man who beat him before: Jack Reacher. And though he'd rather work alone, Reacher is teamed with rookie analyst Casey Nice. They're facing a rough road, full of local thugs, double-crosses, and no backup if things go wrong. Reacher never gets too close. But this time it's personal.
