Catherine Raynes: The Forsaken and Not Quite Dead Yet

The Forsaken by Matt Rogers   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.     Not Quite Dead Yet by Holly Jackson   In seven days Jet Mason will be dead.  Jet is the daughter of one of the wealthiest families in Woodstock, Vermont. Twenty-seven years old, she’s still waiting for her life to begin. I’ll do it later, she always says. She has time.  Until Halloween night, when Jet is violently attacked by an unseen intruder.  She suffers a catastrophic head injury. The doctor is certain that within a week, the injury will trigger a deadly aneurysm.  Jet has never thought of herself as having enemies. But now she looks at everyone in a new light: her family, her former best friend turned sister-in-law, her ex-boyfriend.  She has at most seven days, and as her condition deteriorates she has only her childhood friend Billy for help. But nevertheless, she’s absolutely determined to finally finish something:  Jet is going to solve her own murder.    LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
