ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Affair" by Lee Child plunges Jack Reacher into the murky atmosphere of a small Mississippi town bordering a military base in 1997. When a local woman is murdered, Reacher, still a military police officer, is sent undercover to observe and report. He reluctantly joins forces with the local sheriff, Elizabeth Deveraux, as they navigate their own agendas and a growing sense of mistrust. Their investigation unearths hidden secrets and suggests a conspiracy that powerful individuals are desperate to keep buried. The narrative explores themes of murder investigation, military intrigue, and the clash between local and military interests.
