Once the U.S. governments deadliest off-the-books assassin, Evan Smoak was known only by the codename Orphan X. But he broke free, vanished, and reinvented himself as The Nowhere Man, the last hope for those with nowhere else to turn.
When Evan has a chance encounter with a desperate father named Rusty, he agrees to help free Rustys estranged son from the grip of violent, merciless organisation who will stop at nothing to get their way. But what looks like a straightforward rescue mission quickly spirals into something far more dangerous and personal.
At the same time, Evan is forced to confront the one ghost hes never been able to escape: the father who abandoned him. In a world where every move could be his last, Orphan X will finally have to face the past he buried – if the present doesnt kill him first.
