A military investigation turns inward

Set on New Year’s Day in 1990, the novel places Jack Reacher—then an elite military cop—inside an investigation sparked by the death of a two-star general at a North Carolina motel and the disappearance of his briefcase. When the general’s wife is also murdered, Reacher’s orders lead into a crisis within the U.S. Army, where he becomes a suspect and confronts a conspiracy tied to an enemy he did not know he had. The military setting and Reacher’s position within the institution give the suspense its central frame: an investigation that threatens to implicate the investigator himself. The publisher notes that the novel can be read on its own within the series.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING JACK REACHER SERIES - "A thriller that gallops at a breakneck pace."--Chicago Sun-Times


Jack Reacher. Hero. Loner. Soldier. Soldier's son. An elite military cop, he was one of the army's brightest stars. But in every cop's life there is one case that changes everything. For Jack Reacher, this is that case.

New Year's Day, 1990. In a North Carolina motel, a two-star general is found dead. His briefcase is missing. Nobody knows what was in it. Within minutes Reacher has his orders: Control the situation. Within hours the general's wife is murdered. Then the dominoes really start to fall.

Somewhere inside the vast worldwide fortress that is the U.S. Army, Reacher is being set up as a fall guy with the worst enemies a man can have. But Reacher won't quit. He's fighting a new kind of war--against an enemy he didn't know he had. And against a conspiracy more chilling, ingenious, and treacherous than anyone could have guessed.

The Enemy, like most of the books in the Jack Reacher series, can be read as a standalone thriller.
