However, it is evident he will be cleared of the charges. Still unaware of all these developments, Barr is willing to accept both responsibility and his punishment, fearing that Reacher will seek justice if the law does not. Barr's mental reconstruction of how he would have committed the shootings confirms Reacher's theory. When Barr awakens from his coma, he tells Helen that he has no recent memory, but believes that he must be guilty of the shootings. Reacher and Cash flee the scene with confidence that Helen will clear Reacher's name. Reacher shoots the Zec in the head on the spot. The Zec points out that Reacher has killed most of the witnesses against him and doubts that he would be convicted, while also admitting that any prison sentence he is likely to serve would be relatively easy compared to his time in Siberia. After he steals Helen's car, Reacher outwits the mob guards, killing them (along with Emerson) with Cash's help, before confronting the Zec about the conspiracy. The gang kidnaps Helen with the aid of Detective Emerson and holds her hostage at a quarry. The real perpetrators are a gang masquerading as a legitimate construction firm, led by a former Soviet political prisoner known only as Zec Chelovek ("prisoner human being"). Reacher eventually follows up a lead at a shooting range in the neighboring state of Ohio, owned by former Marine Gunnery Sergeant Martin Cash, who will talk only if Reacher demonstrates his shooting skills. Reacher is later framed for the murder of the young woman who was paid to instigate the brawl, but this only motivates him further.
After Helen reports her findings about the victims to Reacher, he suggests that the owner of a local construction company was the intended victim, while the other victims served as a cover-up. After an apparently spurious bar fight, Reacher realizes that someone is attempting to strong-arm him into dropping his investigation. Reacher goes to the crime scene and finds inconsistencies about the location, thinking that a trained shooter would have done the killings from the cover of the van on the nearby Fort Duquesne Bridge.
Reacher agrees to investigate if Helen visits the victims' families to learn about the people murdered that day. Reacher vowed that if Barr tried anything like this again, he would take him down. He reveals that Barr had gone on a killing spree during his tour in Iraq but was not prosecuted because, unbeknownst to Barr, his victims were under investigation for numerous rapes and the U.S. Helen tells Reacher he can see the evidence if he will be her investigator, but Reacher retorts that he is not interested in clearing Barr's name. Reacher meets Barr's defense attorney, Helen Rodin, the District Attorney's daughter, who has been saddled with the apparently hopeless task of saving Barr from the death penalty. Emerson and Rodin deny Reacher's request to view the evidence but agree to let him see Barr, who was attacked by fellow inmates and is now in a coma. He arrives in Pittsburgh after seeing a news report about Barr and the shooting. Reacher is a drifter and former Army Military Police officer. They are bewildered when Barr instead takes a notepad and writes "Get Jack Reacher".

When the police raid his house, they find the van, equipment for reloading rifle cartridges, the rifle in question, and Barr asleep in his bed.ĭuring an interrogation by Emerson and District Attorney Alex Rodin, Barr is offered a choice between life in prison in exchange for a full confession or guaranteed death row, as Rodin has never lost a conviction. A fingerprint on the coin belongs to James Barr, a former U.S.
The police, headed by Detective Calvin Emerson, find a shell casing as well as the quarter used to pay for parking. He readies a Springfield Armory M1A and assassinates five people on the river's North Shore Trail from long range before driving off. In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, a man drives a van into a parking garage across the Allegheny River from PNC Park, dropping a quarter into the meter.
