Sally Hibbin
She was born on 3 July 1953 in North London. She is the daughter of Nina Hibbin, film critic for the communist Daily Worker (later the Morning Star). Her career also began as a journalist until she founded her independent production company, Parallax Pictures in 1981. She had a lengthy cooperation with Ken Loach, which began in the early 1990s and was “a pivotal period in the director's career”, with films like Riff-Raff (1991), Raining Stones (1993), Ladybird, Ladybird (1994), Land and Freedom (1995) and Carla's Song (1996).

(1995) and then, Hold Back the Night (1998).
With Skreba Films, Hibbin assisted in producing A Very British Coup (miniseries) (1988) for Channel 4, a three-part dramatization of the novel by MP, Chris Mullin, depicting United Kingdom under a genuinely socialist Labour government. The series won four BAFTA Awards in 1989 - for Best Actor (Ray McAnally), Best Drama Series (Ann Skinner, Sally Hibbin, Alan Plater and Mick Jackson), Best Film Editor (Don Fairservice) and Best Film Sound (Christian Wangler, David Old and Peter Elliott ) – and a 1988 International Emmy Award for Best Drama.

When Reacher arrives in the small town of Margrave, Georgia, he finds a community grappling with its first homicide in 20 years. The cops immediately arrest him and eyewitnesses claim to place Reacher at the scene of the crime. While he works to prove his innocence, a deep-seated conspiracy begins to emerge, one that will require Reacher's keen mind and hard-hitting fists to deal with. One thing above all is for sure: They picked the wrong guy to take the fall.
