EVERY LIFE HAS ITS PRICE

She's known as the Wolf: an assassin working through a kill list with cool efficiency.
Then someone gets in her way: Evan Smoak.
First, he refuses to conveniently die.
Then he stops her killing others.
Evan has the Wolf's measure. He met plenty like her in a former life.
But not since he's had so much to lose.
And the powers behind her are bigger than he could possibly imagine.

The Wolf's got Evan in her sights.
She won't stop. It's kill - or be killed. Cat and mouse.
And Evan has one fatal weakness.
His humanity . . .

Rezensionen

"Gregg Hurwitz seems to have found a new gear as he kicks things up a notch, ramping up the action and tension to deliver the most fascinating and compelling Orphan X novel to date. Think Jason Bourne on steroids... Lone Wolf is one of the year's first must-read thrillers." -The Real Book Spy

"The series has always been a blend of Batman, the Equalizer, and Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp, and Lone Wolf reinforces why it continues to be great nine novels in. Newcomers to Evan's adventures should feel fine starting here before diving into the others." -First Clue

"Lone Wolf is a crushingly brilliant piece of fiction." -Best Thriller Books

"There is simply no one writing thrillers like Gregg Hurwitz...Evan Smoak, the fascinating, richly imagined protagonist at the heart of the Orphan X series, leaps off the page. If you haven't read Gregg Hurwitz, you're missing out." -Lisa Unger

"You can never go wrong with an Orphan X book. No, scratch that. An Orphan X book will never fail to blow your fucking mind." -Best Thriller Books

"Hurwitz continues to dazzle." -Booklist

"Another crackling caper for the solitary Orphan X." -Kirkus Reviews
