Publisher Description
THE NO.1 BESTSELLER: Get ready for a thrilling, pulse-pounding ride . . .
He was once called Orphan X.
Taken from a children's home as a boy and trained to be a weapon as part of a secret government initiative.
But then he broke out and went off the grid, choosing to use his formidable skills to help those who can't protect themselves.
Until one day, his luck ran out...
Ambushed and drugged, Evan wakes up in a locked room with no idea where he has, or who took him.
As he tries to piece together what's happened, testing his gilded prison and its highly trained guards for weaknesses, he receives a desperate call for help.
With time running out, he will need to out-think, out-manoeuvre, and out-fight his toughest opponent yet to have any chance of escape.
He's got to save himself to protect those whose lives depend on him. Or die trying . . .
The Nowhere Man delivers a masterclass in hi-octane thriller writing.
'An even more intense and harrowing thriller. The pace that never lets up' Daily Mail
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Evan Smoak (aka the Nowhere Man), who used to be an assassin for the Orphan Program, a covert U.S. government agency, now lives in a fortified penthouse overlooking Los Angeles, in bestseller Hurwitz's stellar sequel to 2016's Orphan X. Evan masquerades as an importer of industrial cleaning supplies, but he's actually atoning for his murderous past by saving persons in need of help. He only asks that each rescued person refer him to someone else who needs his services. Despite meticulous efforts to maintain his cover, Evan faces many enemies who wish him grievous harm. One of them is Charles Van Sciver, the most brutal of the Orphans, who's now running the program and is on a mission to hunt down former members of the organization. Evan's efforts to elude Van Sciver and company will keep readers on the edge of their seats, but it's Hurwitz's engaging, sympathetic characters who place this thriller above the pack. 100,000 first printing; author tour.
