Killing Floor

Killing Floor begins with Jack Reacher, a former military policeman, deciding to explore the serene town of Margrave, Georgia, purely on a whim. After hopping off a bus and walking fourteen miles, Reacher arrives in what seems like a peaceful American town. Little does he know, his arbitrary decision will soon plunge him into a whirlpool of danger and deception. With his imposing build and enigmatic presence, Reacher is immediately marked as an outsider. On the very day of his arrival, Margrave experiences its first murder in thirty years, and Reacher finds himself arrested as the prime suspect.

The local law enforcement, led by a seemingly corrupt police chief, quickly move to place Reacher at the scene of the crime. As Reacher delves deeper into the town's secrets, he discovers a tangled web of conspiracy, dirty secrets, and overwhelming corruption. As the plot thickens and the body count rises, it's clear that this small town holds big secrets. However, those responsible soon realise one crucial fact – they have chosen the wrong man to take the fall. With his military training and strategic intellect, Reacher embarks on a thrilling quest to uncover the truth and deliver justice in his own uncompromising way.
