In the show, Reece and Edwards (along with help from Marco's men) sweep the compound similarly, but Reece is looking for a particular man named El Navajas (Albert Valladares), whom he captures and tortures, eviscerating the man with his tomahawk before he dies. Reece kills the man in The Terminal List book with a dagger, slashing his throat, before taking out the rest of the men in the compound. At one point, he struggles with a man who is wearing a crude bullet wound bandage, which he attributed to his wife's attempt to stave off her attackers before she was killed.

Rather than hunting for a particular man in the book, Reece is simply trying to kill everyone there- setting up a very different dynamic to the Prime Video TV show. There are some big differences here, including Reece traveling with Ben Edwards in the show (he goes solo in the book) and executing his assault on the compound during the day (at night in the book). In both the book and The Terminal List show, Reece goes to Mexico to hunt down the men who killed his family. In a change from the Prime Video show, the book later revealed that James Reece's wife, Lauren Reece, grabbed a pistol and shot at the assassins, injuring one of them, but still being shot down as she attempted to shield her daughter, Lucy, who was alive when she was found, but died en route to the hospital. He tries to enter his home but is stopped and subdued by police, never seeing his wife and daughter's bodies on the scene. Instead, Reece heads home to find police already there. In the book, the hospital assassination attempt does not take place. Reece then drives home to find his wife and daughter both dead in the kitchen, where he mourns over their bodies as police arrive on the scene. During the scan, assassins arrive to his location and kill the doctor, then move to take out Reece, who reacts quickly, killing one man and injuring another who escapes.


In The Terminal List show, James Reece goes in to have a brain scan shortly after returning from the mission that killed his entire team.
