APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
When does a gun for hire know it’s time to hang up his weapon? If you’re Evan Smoak, better known as Gregg Hurwitz’s antihero Orphan X, it takes five blood-soaked books to come to that conclusion. But as any good thriller fan knows, there’s no retirement plan for vigilante crime fighters. The case that Smoak thought would be his last—protecting an envelope of important documents and its owner from ruthless enemies—becomes one of his most dangerous. Hurwitz delivers action set pieces worthy of a Hollywood blockbuster, but also quieter, lighter moments, like Smoak’s slow-boil romance with his assistant district attorney neighbor or his reluctant mentoring of teenage hacker Joey. It’s this balance between heroism and humanity, humor and harshness that makes us love the Orphan X series and cross our fingers that Smoak returns for more.
