From the best selling author of Beneath a Scarlet Sky comes "A true juggernaut of a thriller, pure adrenaline in print." —James Rollins Mark Sullivan has created a propulsive, compelling new thriller. Rogue, is one part Bourne Identity and one part Mission: Impossible. Two years ago, Robin Monarch was a top level CIA operative—perhaps the best they had when it came to black bag operations. Then one day, in the middle of an operation, with his team around him in the field, Monarch walked away, leaving his old life and friends behind without a word of explanation. Now this ex-soldier, ex-operative, and orphan with a murky past is a thief, stealing from the super-rich and has surfaced in St. Tropez. But when a complicated, high profile jewel heist goes wrong, Monarch is led into a carefully woven trap designed to force him to complete the very same mission he walked away from years ago. It will take all of his skills (as well as those of the team he burned) and all of his cunning, if Monarch is to thwart the violent and deadly goals of the very powerful cabal who will do whatever it takes to bring the very dangerous "Green Fields" technology under their control.

"Fun, fast, there weren't a million moving parts to keep track of- very much enjoyed this. Finished it in lieu of morning coffee, but with a better adrenaline boost. Is it my all time favorite? No, but I'll pass it on to my dad- he'll enjoy it too."
— Allison (4 out of 5 stars)
“Narrator Jeff Gurner has a steely, no-nonsense delivery, and certainly captures the hard-edged Robin Monarch…he sounds like a guy with a machine gun in his hand, a fitting sound for this book.
— Sound CommentaryFast moving and well-written! Rogue reminded me of the Bourne books and movies, only it's much, much better.
— James PattersonDiabolical! Filled with twists, turns, crosses, and double-crosses, Sullivan delivers a harrowing international thriller, while introducing one of the most compelling heroes since Jason Bourne.
— Lisa GardnerA compelling, page-turning blend of spy and caper fiction: it's Robin Hood for the twenty-first century. Loaded with intrigue, laced with detail, and full of bone-shaking action, Rogue is the fantastic start to an exciting new series.

— Julie, 1/17/2014" I'm not sure, maybe this should be three stars? It was entirely easily readable and enjoyable, but, i suppose, lacking in the veracity or creativity to really put it over the top. Still, if you like spy stories, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. "
— Megan, 12/29/2013" I will read about Robin Monarch again. "
