Assassin Boy Nobody serves a mysterious organization called The Program, assuming new identities to get close to his targets. When an assignment involving the mayor of New York stirs up memories of Boy Nobody's past, it complicates his mission. Zadoff's action-packed text suffers from excessive exposition, but the book's intriguing concept and unanswered questions set up anticipation for future installments.
