Evan Smoak’s life is built on a hidden scaffolding of shadows and rules. As a child he was pulled into the top-secret Orphan Program, where orphans are trained to become lethal assets for government agencies. He becomes the 24th recruit, known only as Orphan X. When the program is shut down, he vanishes into a new life, erasing his identity and becoming the Nowhere Man—a ghost who steps out of the dark only when someone has nowhere else to turn.
