Summary

“Will keep readers on the edge of their seats.” - Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Who is THE NOWHERE MAN?

He is spoken about only in whispers. He comes to those in greatest need of his protection. There is no enemy he cannot fight. He lives by his own code. He takes no prisoners. His name is Evan Smoak.

Taken from a group home when he was young, Evan was raised and trained as an Orphan, an off-the-books black box program designed to create the perfect deniable intelligence asset: An assassin. Evan was Orphan X - until he used everything he’d learned to disappear and reinvent himself as the Nowhere Man. But now, his new life has been interrupted by a surprise attack from an unlikely source. Captured, drugged, and spirited off to a remote location, Evan finds himself heavily guarded from everything he knows. His captors think they have him trapped and helpless in a virtual cage, but they do not know that they’re dealing with one of the deadliest, most resourceful men on earth.

“Superb on all levels and a must-read for all thriller fans.” - Providence Journal

“A masterpiece of suspense and thrills.” - Associated Press on Orphan X

I'm more than halfway through Nowhere Man and, quite frankly, I'm beginning to feel like I'm being tortured almost as much as Evan Smoak himself. The story has its moments, and there's certainly potential, but the pacing is painfully slow. It seems to take an eternity to get anywhere, and I'm finding myself waiting for something, anything, to actually happen. I was expecting a gripping thriller, not an endurance test. I'll persevere to the end, but at this rate Evan might need rescuing from the book as much as the people he's trying to save!
Three stars for now, mainly because I'm too stubborn to give up.
