Prodigal Son by Gregg Hurwitz

The sixth entry in the Orphan X series – prefect for Jack Reacher fans looking for something new. Evan Smoak is Orphan X – taken from his orphanage as a child and taught to become a government assassin. He’s retired and now uses all those skills for doing good. One day he gets a call from someone claiming to be his mother – whom he’d never met as she sent him to the orphanage when he was a baby – and she needs his help.
