About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The Nowhere Man is a legendary figure spoken about only in whispers. It’s said that when he’s reached by the truly desperate and deserving, the Nowhere Man can and will do anything to protect and save them.

But he’s not merely a legend.
Taken from a foster home as a boy, Evan Smoak was raised and trained to be an off-the-books government assassin code-named Orphan X. Now free from the programme, he uses his skills to help those with nowhere else to turn.

Critic Reviews

Laughs as well as action. A thriller that makes the Jack Reacher books look quaint
[Hurwitz] is a weapon of mass entertainment and the action never stops
First-rate and deftly varied combat scenes. Rewardingly, it's more plugged into the mood and issues of the present than a Lee Child slugathon
Feels like a missile launch
Outstanding in every way
Weapons-grade thriller writing
