Description
Killing Floor by Lee Child is the first novel in the bestselling Jack Reacher series, introducing the former military policeman as a solitary drifter with a sharp mind and a talent for getting into trouble. Reacher arrives in the small town of Margrave, Georgia, after travelling there on an impulsive detour in search of information about a blues guitarist. Instead, he walks straight into a murder investigation.
Margrave has not seen a homicide in decades, and Reacher is the only stranger in town. He is quickly arrested and accused of being involved, but as more bodies are discovered, it becomes clear that something much larger is happening beneath the town’s quiet surface. Reacher sets out to uncover the truth, using his military training, investigative instincts and willingness to confront anyone standing in his way. First published in 1997, Killing Floor establishes the character and fast-paced action that became hallmarks of the Jack Reacher series.
