The Best Season Yet… Prime Video’s Blockbuster Action Thriller Returns With Near-Perfect Reviews — And Critics Say the Explosive New Chapter May Have Just Raised the Bar Again!

Reacher season 4 has been widely praised as it premieres with its first three episodes on Prime Video. The series starring Alan Ritchson as the ex-US army major and independent investigator returns to our screens with a fourth season based on Lee Child’s 13th book in the Reacher series, Gone Tomorrow.

The new instalment kicks off with Reacher witnessing a suicide in a near-empty Philadelphia subway (New York in Child’s novel), discovering that the woman who died was part of a bigger mystery. In his investigation, Reacher teams up with Detective Tamara Green (Sydelle Noel) and her partner, Detective Shaun Docherty (Kevin Corrigan).

The cast for season 4 is rounded out by Christopher Rodriguez-Marquette as the deceased’s brother Jacob, a small-town police officer who joins Reacher as he demands to know the truth.
