The Nowhere Man - Gregg Hurwitz

IF YOU'VE READ ORPHAN X YOU'LL BE DYING TO READ THIS He was once called Orphan X. As a boy Evan Smoak was taken from a children's home raised and trained as part of a secret government initiative buried so deep that virtually no one knows it exists. But he broke with the programme choosing instead to vanish off grid and use his formidable skill set to help those unable to protect themselves. One day though Evan's luck ran out . . . Ambushed drugged and spirited away Evan wakes up in a locked room with no idea where he is or who has captured him. As he tries to piece together what's happened testing his gilded prison and its highly trained guards for weaknesses he receives a desperate call for help. With time running out he will need to out-think out-manoeuvre and out-fight an opponent the likes of whom he's never encountered to have any chance of escape. He's got to save himself to protect those whose lives depend on him. Or die trying . . . The Nowhere Man delivers another masterclass in hi-octane thriller writing. It doesn't get better than this.
