ReviewsPraise for The Nowhere Man : "Superb on all levels and a must-read for all thriller fans." -- Providence Journal "Beautifully rendered... genius at work." -- Winnipeg Free Press "Hurwitz knows how to put the reader deep in the mind of his hero as the pace never lets up." -- Associated Press "Will keep readers on the edge of their seats... Hurwitz's engaging, sympathetic characters place this thriller above the pack." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A brilliant sequel. As good as Orphan X was, this is an even better novel, mostly because of its more claustrophobic setting, its captivating villain, and the way the author keeps ratcheting up the danger, including one really clever twist near the end of the book. Where there's Smoak, there's fire--and plenty of it." -- Booklist (starred review) "Fans of Jack Reacher will love Evan Smoak, a man who will do anything to aid the innocent (something he never was)." -- Library Journal Praise for Orphan X : " Orphan X is the most gripping, high-octane thriller I've read in a long, long time. Hang onto your seat because Gregg Hurwitz will take you on a dizzying ride you'll not soon forget!" -- Tess Gerritsen "Exciting and mind blowing! A perfect mix of Jason Bourne and Jack Reacher, ex operative Evan Smoak turns on the action and shows off all the right moves as he sets out to help the downtrodden, and perhaps save his own humanity along the way." -- Lisa Gardner "This thriller [is] top-notch.... Turn off the real world and dive into this amazing start to a new series." -- Associated Press "The most exciting thriller I've read since The Bourne Identity . Fans of Jack Reacher, Mitch Rapp, and Jason Bourne will LOVE Evan Smoak, and the deadly, secret world of the Orphan Program. A new thriller superstar is born!" --Robert Crais " Orphan X blows the doors off most thrillers I've read and catapults the reader on a cat-and-mouse chase that feels like a missile launch. Read this book. You will thank me later." --David Baldacci, "The most exciting thriller I've read since The Bourne Identity .

Series Volume Number2
SynopsisSpoken about only in whispers, the Nowhere Man can only be reached by the truly desperate, he can --He will do anything to save them. Evan Smoak is the Nowhere Man. Taken from a group home at twelve, Evan was raised and trained as part of the Orphan Program, an off-the-books operation designed to create deniable intelligence assets--i.e. assassins. Evan was Orphan X. He broke with the Program, using everything he learned to disappear and reinvent himself as the Nowhere Man. But his new life is interrupted when a surprise attack comes from an unlikely angle and Evan is caught unaware. Captured, drugged, and spirited off to a remote location, he finds himself heavily guarded and cut off from everything he knows. His captors think they have him trapped and helpless in a virtual cage but they don't know who they're dealing with--or that they've trapped themselves inside that cage with one of the deadliest and most resourceful men on earth. Continuing his electrifying series featuring Evan Smoak, Gregg Hurwitz delivers a blistering, compelling new novel in the series launched with the instant international bestseller, Orphan X.

  • Short background from initial novel of Orphan X and then it takes off!!

    I really got into this book after about 50/60 pages. Had to give it a chance and I'm glad I did. Well worth the money!!

  • Book two of the Orphan X series is an action-packed adrenaline rush.

    Evan Smoak, AKA the Nowhere Man, AKA Orphan X, is a highly skilled and trained black-ops assassin who has left the Orphan Program to use his abilities to help desperate people who have nowhere to turn, similar to The Equalizer. But The Equalizer had far fewer obstacles regarding self-preservation. The Orphan Program literally recruited from orphanages, selecting children around age 12, whom they had observed and found suitable for training as assassins. Unfortunately, Evan is not the only one who has broken with the program. Other renegade Orphans have bonded together under discreet government sanction, with the express goal of eliminating all Orphans who have gone off-grid. While trying to help the desperate, whose time is running out, Evan must combat his former fellow-Orphans who have targeted Evan. They are well organized and are out for the Nowhere Man's blood, skin and bones.From beginning to end, The Nowhere Man is an adrenaline-pumped thrill ride! Hang on! If you haven't already read Orphan X, the 1st book in the series, I suggest you start there.
