Evan Smoak—also known as Orphan X—faces an explosive situation...

Evan Smoak lives by his own code. Trained as an off-the-books government assassin they named Orphan X, he broke with the program and reinvented himself as The Nowhere Man, a figure hidden in the shadows who helps the truly desperate. Now, free of the Program for good, he turns to a dangerously uncertain future…

Max Merriweather’s at the end of his rope. His cousin’s been brutally murdered, leaving Max an envelope that contains nothing but a mysterious key. It seems a simple enough case for The Nowhere Man to unlock. But behind each threat he takes out, a deadlier one emerges—until it’s clear that they’re facing a city-wide terror and a mission that requires Evan Smoak to put himself at more risk than he’s ever faced before as he’s sent out of the dark and INTO THE FIRE.
