"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.

A former Reuters journalist, MARK SULLIVAN is the author of several internationally bestselling thrillers on his own as well as the coauthor with James Patterson of the bestsellers Private Games (February 2012) and the forthcoming Private Berlin. He lives in Bozeman, Montanta.
Robin Monarch is the most hunted man in the world. His parents, an American cat burglar and a con man from Argentina, are killed when he is just 13, forcing him to live in the most dangerous slum in Buenos Aires. He joins the Brotherhood of Thieves, learns their 18-rule code of conduct, and survives, with the help of a nun. Eventually, Monarch becomes one of the CIA’s top operatives and is sent on a mission to derail an al-Qaeda plot called “Green Fields.” But when he discovers that Green Fields is something else entirely—and that his superiors are corrupt—he goes rogue, with arms dealers, Russian mobsters, and his own government all on his tail. This lightning-fast read brings to mind Robert Ludlum and Mission Impossible—and will definitely appeal to adrenalin junkies—but beyond the breakneck pacing, it comes up short, both in character development and believability. Sullivan undoubtedly learned pacing and the art of the short chapter as coauthor of James Patterson’s Private Games. --Stacy Alesi
