Boy Nobody 
He is nothing. The mission is everything. Bourne meets
Bond in the form of a teenage assassin in the first of a series of heart-stopping action-thriller novels for young adults.
Key Talent:
Award winning author, Allen Zadoff, whose previous works include “
Food, Girls, And Other Things I Can’t Have” (the 2010 winner of the Sid Fleischman Humor Award), “
My Life, The Theater, And Other Tragedies” and the memoir, “
Hungry: Lessons Learned On The Journey From Fat To Thin”. A graduate of Cornell University and the Harvard Institute for Advanced Theater Training, and a former stage director, Allen Zadoff was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and has lived in upstate New York, Manhattan, Tokyo. He currently resides in Los Angeles where he teaching writing.
Synopsis:
The people behind The Program needed the perfect assassin: one who could operate efficiently in any given situation, without fear or anger, and without sympathy for the victim – a ruthless killer who could complete the mission and walk away unnoticed and emotionally unscathed. So they created one. The thing is, he’s just a kid.
Boy Nobody is the typical new kid in class, an insignificant teenager who shows up as a transfer from another high school in another town, makes very few friends and doesn’t stay long before leaving unexpectedly. What he leaves behind is always the same: a bereaved family that has lost a loved one due to “natural causes”. Mission accomplished.
But when Boy Nobody is assigned to target the mayor of New York City, things change. The mayor’s beautiful teenage daughter likes him. The mayor, himself, reminds him of his own, long-departed father and responds favourably to the blossoming relationship between the two teens. As buried memories and new questions begin to surface in Boy Nobody’s mind, a desire to return to being the kid he once was – a normal teenager with a home and real parents – is planted and begins to grow. And all the time The Program is watching. As far as they are concerned, nothing can be allowed to jeopardize the mission.
You'll Love It Because...
At a time when gothic/romantic fantasy and zombie/vampire/werewolf-themed novels have outstayed their welcome, the arrival of Allen Zadoff’s “
Boy Nobody” is both a breath of fresh air and a blaring wake-up call to remind us that there is much more to popular fiction than a bunch of love-struck ghouls. A gripping, rapid-paced suspense thriller concerning the enthralling exploits of a covert teenage assassin with some serious issues, this is destined to become one of the most talked-about young adult books of the year. Writing in a sharp, straight to the point style, Zadoff never underestimates the intelligence of his target audience and is all too willing to take the narrative down some unexpectedly dark paths that will appeal to fans of the
Jason Bourne and
James Bond books.

Slightly different but a must for any book worm! Set to be the next Hunger Games, the book is
already getting a film adaptation with Will Smith's son in the leading role. An action packed and
very grim story that would be perfect for any teen reader in the house.
Boy Nobody is available on the 23rd May.
