Plot Summary: Introduction of Sy
The plot summary currently says "Scorpio provides him with the name of Seymour Porterfield, the man who originally gave him the ring", but as far as I understood the story, this is wrong for two reasons (from the fiction): Firstly, Sy was already dead more than a year, secondly, Scorpio gave the name as a misleading decoy (instead of Billy's, the current dealer's)
So to me, it seems better to insert an "as", like "Scorpio provides him with the name of Seymour Porterfield as the man who originally gave him the ring".
Or maybe this decoy-thing could be elaborated a bit more, but rather by a native speaker than by me :)

Midwest
The article says Reacher is in the Midwest again. Well, it does start in Wisconsin, but it quickly moved westward so that by p. 79 (of 368 pages), Reacher was in Wyoming. In fact, he was in Rapid City, SD by p. 42, which is arguably the Midwest or not. Kdammers (talk) 03:28, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
