A Special Forces soldier is killed on an operation in Afghanistan. Complicit in the attack is a government official. While the US administration wants to forget the casualty, one Taskforce member will not. When he sets out to avenge his brother s death, his actions threaten to not only expose the Taskforce´s activities, but also destroy a web of alliances against a greater evil. Pike Logan understands the desire, but also the danger. Brought in to eliminate the risk, he´s now forced to choose between his friend and the administration he´s sworn to protect.
Praise for The Forgotten Soldier

"Taylor has become one of the very best writers of thrillers with a military and special-ops background. His consistency and his ability to mirror headline news with relevant, engrossing narratives are uncanny, and this exploration of the human side of war should quickly be recognized as one of Taylor´s best efforts. Comparisons to Vince Flynn and Brad Thor are expected and not inaccurate, but Taylor is now in a class by himself."-Booklist (starred review)

"Slick, exciting action and credible complexity are the hallmarks of Taylor´s high-caliber thrillers, and this latest installment does not disappoint."-Library Journal

"Brad Taylor...takes his considerable talents to a new level with The Forgotten Soldier....It´s one thing to write great action scenes, quite another to bring us into the actual mindset of the special ops world he knows so well."-Providence Journal

"Taylor delivers the latest addition to his growing body of convincing plots...he spins a tale that could easily have been lifted from our current sociopolitical reality....A realistic page-turner that fills a need for thrills while questioning the complicated process of statecraft."-Kirkus Reviews

"Terrific stuff, twistier than usual and just as action packed."-Sullivan County Democrat
