If you’re already bracing for the Reacher Season 4 finale on September 16, Prime Video isn't letting the dust settle. Dropping that exact same day, a new spin-off delivers an immediate eight-episode chaser set directly inside Lee Child’s high-octane universe.

While Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) spends season 4 battling a high-stakes conspiracy across Philadelphia, fan-favorite Frances Neagley (Maria Sten) has so far been conspicuously absent — busy, it’s assumed, laying the groundwork for her own solo operation. A fierce former Master Sergeant from the 110th MP Special Investigations Unit turned corporate PI, Neagley has always been the smartest person in Jack's orbit. Now, she steps out of his massive shadow as a suspicious death from her past pulls her into a lethal game of her own.

Don't fret too much if you haven’t been keeping up with your Reacher lore. While it carries the franchise's signature hard-hitting DNA, Neagley is built as a sharp, standalone thriller, so there’s no homework required.

As the name implies, Neagley follows Frances Neagley, a former member of the Army’s 110th Special Investigations Unit and one of Jack Reacher’s closest allies. In the present day, she works as a private investigator in Chicago, putting the skills she developed alongside Reacher to good use in her own cases.

The new spin-off series kicks off when Neagley learns of a close friend’s drug-related suicide on a pair of train tracks in Chicago. Channeling her inner Reacher, she refuses to accept the official ruling. No sooner does she begin investigating the scene than she finds herself in the crosshairs of a lethal, far-reaching conspiracy.
