About this listen

The stunning third Orphan X thriller from number one best-selling author Gregg Hurwitz.

To some he was Orphan X. Others knew him as the Nowhere Man. But to veteran spymaster Jack Johns, he was a boy named Evan Smoak. Taken from an orphanage, Evan was raised inside a top secret programme designed to turn him into a deadly weapon. Jack became his instructor, mentor, teacher and guardian. Because for all the dangerous skills he instilled in his young charge, he also cared for Evan like a son. And now Jack needs Evan’s help. The Orphan programme hid dark secrets. Now those with blood on their hands want every trace of it gone. And they will stop at nothing to make sure that Jack and Evan go with it.

With little time remaining, Jack gives Evan his last assignment: to find and protect the programme's last recruit. And to stay alive long enough to uncover the shocking truth...

With Hellbent, Gregg Hurwitz raises the bar again with another masterclass in big-screen, high-octane thriller writing.

Repeat listener.

I listened to this series years ago and became addicted. Looking forward to my long drive to work and home so I could get my fill. When finished I listened again because I knew I would enjoy it. Prodigal Son was just released. I finished it in no time with an OMG you can’t finish it there with out the next book waiting! So to satisfy my yearning I’m going through the series again. This time really absorbing the details. Thank you Mr Hurwitz for your awesome imagination, knowledge and storytelling ability.

Another great title in the Orphan X series

Another book in this series that can't be put down. Gregg Hurwitz is a master of detail and storyline, with just the right amount of character development that builds familiarity with key players without detracting from the story. The only thing that let this particular book down was the shameless product placement.

Determination

l enjoyed this book to the extent I would remain in the car, in the carpark under my office, for 5 or so minutes because I didn't want to stop the story.

There is no doubt Evan is clever, determined and lethal. Evan is also now displaying emotion. His internal struggle highlights his training, loyalty and committment. I hope there is another book very soon.
