Based on the popular series of Lee Childs books, Reacher is about a former Army Policeman turned wanderer who keeps getting into trouble while looking out for the little guy.

Season 2 is based on the eleventh Reacher book, 'Bad Luck and Trouble', which involves members of one of his units being hunted down.

Even after one season Reacher has proven very popular, with a third season already confirmed, so you're going to want to check out this second season. So here's how watch Reacher season 2.
