Exit Strategy

Přečtená

Jack Reacher will make three stops today. Not all of them were planned for.

First - a Baltimore coffee shop. A seat in the corner, facing the door.

Black coffee, two refills, no messing about. A minor interruption from two of the customers, but nothing he can't deal with swiftly. As he leaves, a young guy brushes against him in the doorway.

Instinctively Reacher checks the pocket holding his cash and passport. There's no problem. Nothing is missing.

Second - a store to buy a coat.

Nothing fancy. Something he can ditch when he heads to warmer climes. Large enough to fit a man the size of a bank vault.

As he pulls out his cash, he finds something new in his pocket. A handwritten note. A desperate plea for help.

Third - wherever this bend in the road takes him.

Impressed by the guy's technique and intrigued by the message, Reacher makes it his mission to find out more . . .
