The Last Orphan

By Gregg Hurwitz

The world needs a new hero, and Evan Smoak – aka Orphan X – is here to help in this electrifying new adventure perfect for fans of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher series

A heavily-armed counter-assault team, sedatives strong enough for large animals, a hood, mouthguard and Secret Service Agents asking for selfies.

Not your average meeting with the President.

But Orphan X is not your average guest. The last survivor of the off-the-books Orphan programme, Evan was trained to do his government’s dirty work. Until he escaped.

Now the President makes an offer: kill a man, or be executed.

Evan spent years atoning for his former life. If this mission betrays the very principles he now follows, what is left?

Putting Orphan X in an impossible spot only makes him more dangerous…
