After more of his friends fall victim, Reacher forges an uneasy alliance with a dogged detective, and their only clue in the case leads the 110th to a troubling discovery.
In a flashback somewhere in New Age Technologies HQ, Calvin Franz is tortured by Shane Langston's men for information. Calvin does not offer up anything even though he has been severely beaten including having both his legs broken. After Calvin defiantly spits blood in Langston's face, Langston orders his men to take Calvin to the helicopter. High above New York's Catskill mountains, Langston gives him the last chance to divulge the information he's looking for, but Calvin says that he's wondering what the "big guy" will do to him. Langston orders his men to dump him out of the helicopter. After closing the doors, Langston wonders who the "big guy" is.
In the present time, Reacher is in a gun shop where he bribes the owner Frank Majeske into selling him weapons and ammo without waiting for the required 7 days. He collects the stash and returns to the group. During their drive back to New York, Reacher and Dixon tease O'Donnell about his shooting skills as Karla says that he "couldn't hit a donkey's ass with a banjo". Neagley discovers another motel named Jade East in Belt Parkway which can serve as their hideout. Among their banter, they are unknowingly tailed by a police vehicle which signals them to pull over. Reacher asks Dixon to pull over and the officer orders them to wait. Sometime after, Russo arrives and arrests Reacher once he identified him, Reacher asks O'Donnell to act as his lawyer since he had some law experience in Rutgers. He also tasks Neagley and Dixon into investigating the New Age parking pass. O'Donnell accompanies Reacher and Russo to the police station. Inside the car, Russo reveals that he tracked them by obtaining security footage from car rental companies at the airport and had recognized them when they were renting a car with Dixon's assistance. He tracked the plate and monitored if it had gone back to New York when a police cruiser spotted it and reported them in. While being transported in the back seat of Russo's car, Reacher and O'Donnell discover a bag full of kids toys much to his ire.
In New Age Technologies HQ, Dixon and Neagley meet Director of Operations Marlo Burns about possible information on the parking lot pass. The pair inform her about the current case and gains her cooperation when they mentioned that the victims are close friends of theirs. Sometime after, Marlo returns and tells the pair that the pass belongs to a man named Trevor Saropian who had been chasing after the survivors of the unit and killed by Reacher. Days prior, Saropian had been there for an interview in which he apparently offered office maintenance services to the company but is rejected due to their small operation that cannot fit their needs. Marlo is able to provide them his address as the company still has his resume on their data files.
Meanwhile in the interrogation room, Reacher recognizes that he was brought here for possible information related to his case as he was not processed. Russo announces that their efforts are actively interfering with his investigation. They begin to show reluctant goodwill between them and exchange information based on their one common trait in which they want to solve the murders in New York's Catskill mountains. Russo reveals that Calvin Franz's phone logs have multiple calls that are addressed to O'Donnell, Sanchez, Swan and Orozco, but not to Reacher who reveals that he does not carry a phone with him. Reacher relents and proposes a deal in which they share information about the case. They share the phrase "650 at 100K" in which they assumed to be 65 million dollars though cannot determined how and what the money is for. When Russo insinuates that his friends were criminals involved in the case, Reacher angrily confronts Russo and accuses him of being a dirty cop through him tailing them without identifying himself, gathers information from them without making a formal arrest in order to keep the matter off the books, Russo insists that he is not a dirty cop. The tension is resolved through O'Donnell's intervention, he asks him to keep the integrity through him sharing information that they have not known. Russo announces that they have a suspect in the case which was discovered through a memory card which was inside a printer in Calvin's office. There was an unfinished print job left in the queue. The print job reveals a man by the alias Azhari Mahmoud who is known to INTERPOL as a weapons broker for terrorist organizations, and Sanchez's notes indicate that he is the man of interest in their case. Reacher realizes that Sanchez and Orozco had dug out the information for Calvin's ongoing case. Noticing that the name has A.M. initials, Reacher writes the list from before and tells Russo to have DHS flag all of his aliases. Reacher and O'Donnell realize that the case is bigger than they have initially thought as the trio may be involved with the case of terrorism.
Back in their military days, Tony Swan, Reacher, Dixon and O'Donnell are at a crime scene outside an Officer's Club with a man, Private Simms, shot in the back. O'Donnell believes that it's a crime of bar brawl gone wrong, but Swan confirms that Simms was not involved in any fight that led up to his demise as no one had recognized him. Reacher deduces that Simms had not been in the bar as his pant cuffs are stained with muddy rainwater and he had been running for his life, tripped in a pothole and shot in the back by an unknown assailant. Additionally, Reacher deduces that the ink smudged in his palm resembles a kite belong to someone's drugs. Lieutenant Colonel Hortense Fields visits the crime scene and is informed of the case's details and asks them to give him updates. After some inspection, Reacher realiz es that the kite resembles a fighter kite which is popular in Afghanistan as well as heroine's production. Sensing a link between this case and one involving aviation fuel, Reacher asks Dixon to look at that case once more as he had an idea what was really being transported on the plane.
Back in the present, Neagley and Dixon inspect the numbers that were on the sheet of paper that was found in Franz's Printer queue. Dixon realises that the sequence of numbers resemble days and months and that every page is equal to a month with the number 26 and 27 resembles to working 6 days a week depending on each days in a month. Additionally, Dixon notices that the documents detailed the last 7 months and the numbers in month 1 were decent to abysmal in month 7. The pair begin to question the things that the guys were counting.
