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

NO GREATER FRIEND
Evan Smoak is the guy you want on your side. A former government black ops assassin, he'll be there for you in your darkest hour - and he'll rain hell and thunder on those who caused your pain.

NO WORSE ENEMY
A lone wolf operator, Evan can't afford to lose any of the few people he likes and trusts. But when Tommy Stojack, Evan's loyal, long-time gunsmith and armourer, betrays him, it's war.

Because a good assassin keeps his friends close, but his weapons closer . . .

Praise for Nemesis

He is a weapon of mass entertainment and the action never stops

The Express

Laughs as well as action. A thriller that makes the Jack Reacher books look quaint

Sun

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
