Repairman Jack returns in a thrilling sequel to the New York Times bestseller, The Tomb. Known for his unique skills as a situation fixer, Jack operates outside the law and societal norms, with no last name or Social Security number. After fifteen years apart, he is contacted by his estranged sister, Kate, who seeks his help to understand her girlfriend Jeanette's alarming trance-like behavior. A mysterious stranger leads Kate to Jack, who is less than thrilled about their reunion and what she learns about his unconventional life. As Jack investigates, he discovers that Jeanette's condition stems from experimental therapy for a brain tumor, which has left her and other subjects infected by a mutated virus. This virus is intent on multiplying, and if Jack fails to contain it, the consequences could be catastrophic. Meanwhile, while riding the 9 train, Jack faces a life-threatening situation when a passenger begins shooting indiscriminately. Jack intervenes, neutralizing the threat, but this act of bravery catches the attention of a local tabloid reporter who sees an opportunity to elevate Jack to celebrity status. This newfound fame threatens to unravel the very essence of who Repairman Jack is and the life he has built.
