Description

“Fast moving and well-written! Rogue reminded me of the Bourne books and movies, only it's much, much better.” ― James Patterson “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 “Diabolical! 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 “A 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.” ― Jeff Abbott "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.

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 Author of the bestselling novel Beneath a Scarlet Sky , MARK SULLIVAN is also the author of the Robin Monarch thrillers ( Rogue , Outlaw , and Thief ) as well as the coauthor with James Patterson of the several bestsellers in the "Private" series.

"Sensational Thriller"

Rogue is a fast moving thriller, where the action scenes are realistic, with great settings and exceptional details. Robin Monarch is not just your ordinary spy, he's a little bit of good guy, bad guy, super hero, but definitely a "Warrior". Mark Sullivan is an outstanding story teller who knows how to mix suspense and action keeping you on the edge of your seat wanting more. Don't start reading this just before you go to bed, because if you do you will be up all night.
