Ordeal. The second novel by Gregg Hurwitz to feature Evan Smoak is titled,
The Nowhere Man. Smoke is also known as Orphan X, the title of the first novel in this series. I found the pace of this novel to be much slower than the earlier one. Smoak spends a long time in confinement with slow exposition followed by fast-pacing of a quick resolution to his ordeal. While this novel stands on its own, readers will have a more complete view of this interesting protagonist if one reads the novels in sequence. I was entertained well enough by this installment, and look forward to another in the series.
Rating: Four-star (I like it)
