Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Reacher finally tells Finlay what Hubble said in prison about how the organization threatened him with the same treatment Morrison received, which leads them to believe Morrison was involved in whatever Joe was investigating. Reacher and Finlay go for a walk, and Reacher sees Kliner’s son watching them again. Reacher reasons that Morrison claimed to have seen him at the warehouse at midnight because he was sent to cover up Joe’s murder, and the two brothers look enough alike that Morrison confused them. Morrison was killed because of his sloppy cover-up and Hubble’s subsequent arrest. Reacher says Roscoe is not involved, because she would not have worked so hard to get him released from Warburton if she was corrupt. As Finlay leaves for the stationhouse, Kliner’s son approaches Reacher. He warns Reacher to stay away from Roscoe, claiming Reacher is “trespassing” on what belongs to him. When Reacher tells him to back off, there is a noticeable change in the man’s behavior. Before, he was jittery and angry; now, he appears calm. Kliner’s son offers Reacher a handshake, and Reacher squeezes his hand until the man’s knuckles crack.
