Plot Details
The official plot synopsis of season 2 says (via. Collider):
“Reacher Season Two begins when veteran military police investigator Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) receives a coded message that the members of his former U.S. Army unit, the 110th MP Special Investigations, are being mysteriously and brutally murdered one by one. Pulled from his drifter lifestyle, Reacher reunites with three of his former teammates turned chosen family to investigate, including Frances Neagley (Maria Sten); Karla Dixon (Serinda Swan), a forensic accountant for whom Reacher has long had a soft spot; and fast-talking, switchblade-wielding family man David O’Donnell (Shaun Sipos).”
It continues.
“Together, they begin to connect the dots in a mystery where the stakes get higher at every turn, and that brings about questions of who has betrayed them—and who will die next. Using his inimitable blend of smarts and size, Reacher will stop at nothing to uncover the truth and protect the members of his unit. If there’s one thing Reacher and his team know for certain, it’s that you do not mess with the Special Investigators. This season, get ready for Reacher and the 110th to hit back hard.”
This season will be based on the 11th book of the series, which is quite a jump. It might be a bit of an uneasy feeling for the readers since they will be skipping over so much material. However, the 11th book seems like a good choice for the season, as it is pretty captivating and tantalizing.

Alan Ritchson will reprise his role as Jack Reacher again in season 2. Some of the returning cast members will include Maria Sten, Ferdinand Kingsley, and Serinda Swan. Shaun Sipos will also be joining Season 2 alongside Robert Patrick. Rory Cochrane was also cast; however, he left due to scheduling conflicts.
