Peacock's 'Reacher'-Inspired Spy Thriller Is the Perfect Weekend Binge Before Season 2




There are plenty of shows about assassins, spies, and impossibly competent killers, and there are fewer still that can make watching a man assemble a rifle, change his face, or spend several minutes figuring out exactly where to stand feel genuinely tense.
