The Forsaken by Matt Rogers introduces Logan Booth, a man who, for ten years, served as a contract killer for the CIA—unbeknownst to him. This marks the first entry in a blockbuster thriller series from Matt Rogers, a million-copy bestseller and acclaimed as 'a bright new talent shaking up the genre' by Candice Fox.

As his career draws to a close, Logan discovers he has been a pawn in furthering government interests, rather than operating as a rogue hitman for a vigilante group. This shattering revelation leaves him in despair.

When Jorge Romero, an investigative reporter and Logan's oldest friend, is brutally and inexplicably murdered, Logan allows his fury to lift him from his sorrow. With the help of Alice Mason, a homeless witness who now has a target on her back, Logan steps onto the battlefield. Though he initially does not know against whom he is fighting, he is certain that powerful forces are conspiring behind the scenes.

To achieve justice, Logan and Alice must face their own demons and endure a savage confrontation that threatens to devastate their lives, even if they manage to survive.

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