Evan Smoak is “Orphan X” and he is a very dangerous man.
In this short story, he plays knight errant in rescuing Leanne Lattimore from Silicon Valley tech billionaire Steve Radack. Radack is a sadist. Leanne desperately needs rescuing and Smoak is the man to do it.
The story focuses like a laser and moves like a wire-guided missile, as Evan intuits Leanne's need for rescue, scopes out the enemy, and moves into action. He has some “very particular skills” that are honed to the maximum. He knows weapons, close combat fighting and computer hacking. He has no apparent flaws and operates below the radar.
This story delivers on what it promises. It is action adventure, with a fair amount of wish-fulfillment. I was intrigued by the mysterious back story and not particularly interested in the loving descriptions of weaponry and tech, but, obviously, that is bread and butter for those who like action adventure stories of this kind. This is an easy and entertaining read.
