No greater friend. No deadlier enemy.

The explosive new novel in the New York Times bestselling Orphan X series is flipping the acclaimed series on its head. Find out why series superfans and new listeners alike are calling it a “knockout” (firstCLUE).

Evan Smoak is a highly trained former government assassin who has survived for years by keeping his circle to a few trusted confidants and a strict code he calls “The Ten Commandments.” But when Evan suddenly finds himself at odds with his oldest friend, all the rules he lives by shatter—and the consequences are murderous.

Tommy Stojack might be Evan's best friend in the world. He’s a gifted gunsmith who has created much of Evan's own weapons and combat gear. But now, he has apparently crossed one of Evan's hardest lines and their argument explodes into open warfare. Now Evan has no choice but to track and face down his only friend.

In the meantime, Tommy has left town in order to honor his own promise to help a dead friend's son. While Tommy is fighting to save the son with everything he’s got, Evan arrives with vengeance in mind.

But as deadly as the former Orphan X is, there is an even more dangerous threat about to arrive on the scene. The only question left is will any of them get out alive.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Nemesis is an excellent turning point in the Orphan X series with great story arcs that embrace meaningful and engaging themes distinct to each character and also opens the door for an even rawer and emotionally beaten Evan like you would never expect by the end of the narrative. Hurwitz throws a curveball that will leave you stunned for the better part of a day when you finally reach the end." —Best Thriller Books

Too touchy feely

Too much trivial relationship interaction. The story lagged a little as it backed into the meat of X’s “mission “.
The narration by Scott Brick, as always, was exceptional.

Scott Brick is the GOAT

Great story and another 10/10 performance by Scott Brick. Note the subtle timing and vocal changes from when he goes from narrator to inner monologues.

5 wasted hours

I good story just a lot of wasted no nonsense storyline. This story could've been told in 11 hours and still be a great story not 16 hours.

Tommmmmy!!

I gave a rating of 4 only because I don't want Tommy's storyline to be true! Now I have to go back and write down all the times he made me laugh!

my heart hurts

great story, great twists and turns, redemptions where I saw none, and a strong tug and hurt of my heart... nicely done ❤️
