   Summary

   Lt. Colonel Sydney Logan has spent her entire career mastering control—of cases, emotions, and the distance she keeps between herself and the rest of the world. Then she meets Captain Jack Reacher.

   He's not like other men—and she’s not the kind of woman who lets her guard down. But when they start to work side by side, the walls she’s built begin to crack.

   He’s quiet. Steady. Dangerous. And he sees right through her.

   A slow-burn romance told through discipline, tension and quiet rituals, that takes the long way around.

   Set prior to the formation of the 110th Special Investigations Unit, but after the death of Kohl.
