Plot Summary of Looking For Mr Nobody
"Wolf, a down-and-out pavement artist living in Amsterdam, can't recall who he is, but people seem to want him dead. He tries to save a friend from sinister men in black, and gets embroiled in an illegal medical experiment with the effects of military-spec designer drugs backed by shadowy government types. Robin Carlson, American Army brat tough girl who has a Glock-17 for a security blanket, is trying to find her boyfriend, who has disappeared in the city. Only Wolf can help her, but first she has to find him - then she has to make him remember a past he'd rather forget. Locked into the weird workings of the Nemesis Project, these mismatched partners are forced to trust one another - and more."
Mercy Falconer, Resident Scholar
