**Evan Smoak returns in The Last Orphan, the latest New York Times
bestselling Orphan X thriller--when everything changes and everything is
at risk.
**
As a child, Evan Smoak was plucked out of a group home, raised and
trained as an off-the-books assassin for the government as part of the
Orphan program. When he broke with the program and went deep
underground, he left with a lot of secrets in his head that the
government would do anything to make sure never got out.
When he remade himself as The Nowhere Man, dedicated to helping the most
desperate in their times of trouble, Evan found himself slowly back on
the government's radar. Having eliminated most of the Orphans in the
program, the government will stop at nothing to eliminate the threat
they see in Evan. But Orphan X has always been several steps ahead of
his pursuers.
Until he makes one little mistake...
Now the President has him in her control and offers Evan a deal -
eliminate a rich, powerful man she says is too dangerous to live and, in
turn, she'll let Evan survive. But when Evan left the Program he swore
to only use his skills against those who really deserve it. Now he has
to decide what's more important - his principles or his life.
