The Forsaken - (A Logan Booth Thriller) by Matt Rogers (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

For ten years, Logan Booth served as a contract killer for the CIA - he just never knew it. The first book in a blockbuster thriller series from Matt Rogers, a million-copy bestseller and 'a bright new talent shaking up the genre' (Candice Fox).

In the twilight of his career, Logan learns he has been a vessel for furthering government interests, not a rogue hitman for a band of vigilantes. The revelation destroys him.

But when Jorge Romero - an investigative reporter and Logan's oldest friend - is brutally and inexplicably murdered, Logan allows his fury to deliver him from despair.

With an ally in Alice Mason, a homeless witness with a target on her back, Logan goes to war. Against whom, he isn't sure, but he knows powerful forces are at work behind the scenes.

Now, to deliver justice, Logan and Alice must confront their demons and win a savage battle that could destroy their lives... even if they survive.

'Logan Booth is a character who is impossible to look away from and difficult to forget.' Kyle Mills
