Former Gendarmerie 110 Major Reacher Jack is back at a military base in Virginia to meet with Criminal Investigations Major Susan Turner to resolve some personal issues. But after arriving at the base, Jack accidentally discovered that Major Turner had been arrested on espionage charges, and Sam Morgan took his place temporarily.
Jack went to Fort Dale Highest Military Prison to find Susan's attorney, Major Murcroft. From there, in addition to learning that Susan was ordered not to meet with Jack, he also learned that he had been falsely accused of anti-government and anti-social felony, and She was also accused by the inexplicable Ms Candice Dutton of being an irresponsible father for not paying alimony to her 15-year-old daughter Samantha Dutton. Jack insists that he does not know Candice, who has a history of prostitution and theft. Moorcroft told Jack that Susan's guilty evidence was a computer hard drive, and the data on the hard drive showed that she was selling state secrets; two days ago, Sergeant Milkovich and Sergeant Qi Beili, who were sent by Susan to Afghanistan to investigate, were shot and killed there. , Susan was immediately arrested.
After leaving the highest military prison, Jack found that he was being monitored and followed. Jack has a premonition that the army's largest contractor, Chaoyuan, is behind the scenes to kill Susan.
Then, Major Murcroft was murdered in the apartment. Jack is recalled to the force by Major Morgan and is being held at Fort Dale Maximum Military Prison for the murder of Major Murcroft.

Murdered Sergeants Milkovich and Qi Beili were the reason Susan sent to Afghanistan to investigate the loss of military weapons, and Susan believed they were likely to find out the truth and be murdered. Therefore, starting with this, the murderer can be found. Susan learned by checking emails Milkovich and Qi Beili had sent herself that the last person they investigated was Daniel Puton, an employee of the contractor Chaoyuan.
Major Morgan thought Samantha Dutton was Jack's daughter and sent a killer to assassinate her. When Jack and Susan arrived, Samantha survived by hiding in the closet.
In order to find Daniel Puton, Jack, Susan and Samantha came to New Orleans, where the headquarters of Super Source is located, and the killer also chased here.
In dealing with the killer, Jack and Susan found Daniel. Daniel told Jack that they often lied about the number of weapons in Afghanistan, and then Chaoyuan Company sold the remaining weapons to the Taliban on the black market, making a lot of money; while investigators Milkovich and Sgt. Qi Beili were killers hired by Chaoyuan Company killed.
After receiving this information, Jack and Susan rushed to the cargo airport of Chaoyuan Company with their former soldiers, and found a large amount of opium hidden in the ammunition box, and immediately arrested the company's operator, General James Harkness...
