MEET GREGG HURWITZ IN NZ

 
 

Boom!!! Gregg Hurwitz has done it again with The Nowhere Man going straight to #1 in the NZ bestseller charts, first week on sale.

It’s not surprising that parallels have been drawn between Evan Smoak – Hurwitz’s smouldering new serial character – and Reacher. Both are two compelling, authentic and unique lone-wolf action heroes, who have struck an instant chord with fair-minded Kiwis.

The Nowhere Man delivers another masterclass in hi-octane thriller writing. It doesn’t get better than this. As a boy, Evan Smoak — ‘aka Orphan X’ — was taken from a children’s home, raised and trained as part of a secret government initiative buried so deep that virtually no one knows it still exists. But he broke with the programme, choosing instead to vanish off grid and use his formidable skill-set to help those unable to protect themselves. One day, though, Evan’s luck ran out and now he’s got to save himself to protect those whose lives depend on him, or die trying . . .


Meet Gregg Hurwitz in New Zealand and hear how this #1 bestselling crime novelist and comic book author, Shakespeare tragedy scholar and Hollywood screenwriter has created a compelling, authentic and savvy modern-day action hero.
