Sunday Times No.1 bestselling hero Orphan X is back with a bang in his biggest adventure yet. ‘Pure nail-biting stay-up-all-night suspense’ Harlan Coben

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.
