Lion

A multi-billion-dollar casino complex in Macau. A nine-year-old with information capable of ruining its owner. An ex-black ops killer looking for trouble. The second book in a pulse-pounding series from Matt Rogers, a million-copy bestseller and 'a bright new talent shaking up the genre' (Candice Fox).

Outside the gigantic Mountain Lion Casino & Resorts, Will Slater – fresh off a brutal career as a government assassin – watches a young child get snatched off the street by an army of security. Acting out of instinct, he hurls himself into the fray, rescuing the girl and preventing her from a fate worse than death. Shien carries sensitive information capable of bringing down Peter Forrest, the billionaire owner of Mountain Lion. When Slater opts to protect her and pursue the truth, he unravels a horrifying discovery that will unlock his deepest, darkest rage.
