Synopsis

"A true juggernaut of a thriller, pure adrenaline in print. With the creation of Robin Monarch, Sullivan has crafted a Jason Bourne for the new millennium." ―James Rollins

Mark Sullivan has created a propulsive, compelling new thriller. Rogue, is one part Bourne Identity and one part Mission: Impossible, but readers will also love the nod to Hitchcock's It Takes a Thief.

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.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

"Fast moving and well-written! It reminded me of the Bourne books and movies, only it's much, much better." ―James Patterson

Robin Monarch is not your ordinary spy. Orphaned at a young age, he survived the worst slum in Buenos Aires by becoming a very talented thief. After a near-fatal incident, he changed the course of his life, ultimately becoming a top-level CIA operative and considered one of the best at black-bag operations. That is, until one day, without explanation, Monarch walked away, leaving his old life behind.

ROGUE

Today Monarch is a thief once more, supporting an extravagant, jet-setting lifestyle by stealing from the super-rich. But the past isn't finished with him―and eventually he is led into a carefully woven trap designed to force him to complete the very same mission he turned away from years ago. Now it will take all of his skills and cunning to thwart the goals of his enemies who are dead-set on his demise. But they don't know the truth―the real truth―about who Robin Monarch is. And just how far he is willing to go to see that his work gets done...

"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 Gardner, New York Times bestselling author of Catch Me
