About this listen
When ex-Navy SEAL Salam "Fade" al-Fayed wakes from a coma in a prison hospital, a shadowy organization offers him the only way out—through a high-stakes military mission. An electrifying international political espionage thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author Kyle Mills.
"Wall to wall action. Great book," as recommended by bestselling thriller author Brad Thor on Today.
"Fade is a badass operator whom even a coma can’t stop. . . . Plenty of action, plenty of fun." —Kirkus Reviews
When ex-Navy SEAL Salam "Fade" al-Fayed steps in front of a sniper's bullet, he assumes that he's reached the end of the road—his death wish has finally been answered.
Instead, he wakes in a hospital. As one of the deadliest operatives in U.S. history, he's now incapable of even standing without assistance. Alone and wanted by authorities, he's destined to spend the rest of his life lying in a prison infirmary.
So when a shadowy organization offers him a new identity and next-generation medical care, he has no choice but to agree. Nothing's free, though. After a grueling rehabilitation, he's drafted into an elite paramilitary unit equipped with cutting-edge military technology. But who's in charge?
A dire threat soon provides the answer: a highly contagious pathogen explodes out of China, and a select group of the world's wealthiest and most powerful people decide that governments are no longer capable of controlling the chaos erupting around the globe. It's a power grab by billionaires who've decided that it's their time to rule.
With panic rising worldwide, the leaders of both democracies and dictatorships prove equally willing to destroy anything and anyone to save themselves. Forced into action before he's fully ready, Fade finds himself at the sharp end of a mission to stop a menace unlike any he's faced before. If he fails, the consequences will be unimaginable. But what if he succeeds?
No one elected the people he's working for. And God sure as hell didn't ordain them. Has he signed on to save the human race . . . or to help quietly enslave it?
Fade In tackles the complex threats of international espionage, power imbalances, and global terrorism–and introduces a character destined to take his place among legends like Vince Flynn’s Mitch Rapp, Robert Ludlum’s Jason Bourne, Lee Child’s Jack Reacher, and Daniel Silva’s Gabriel Allon. "The prose snaps and hums. . . Fade In is a gripping, violent, and often heartbreaking book. It’s for readers who like their thrillers with a sharp philosophical bite." —Literary Titan
Kyle Mills is the author of nine New York Times bestselling Vince Flynn novels featuring Mitch Rapp.
Critic Reviews
"Fade is a first-ballot certainty for the Thriller Hall of Fame." (Lee Child)
"Fade is a badass operator whom even a coma can’t stop. . . . Plenty of action, plenty of fun."
“Fresh and incredibly relevant to today’s geopolitical landscape, Fade In is a slow-burn thriller that explodes with violence and leaves you stunned. . . Thriller fans will enjoy Fade In on its own merits but will also be excited for the potential of where this series can go in the future.” (Steven Netter)
"The most fun I’ve had reading a thriller in a while . . . (Fade is) an invigorating, witty, and highly-likable protagonist." (Kashif Hussain)
"Kyle Mills is a master of the page-turner. His attention to detail and his smooth style will keep you reading well into the night.” (Vince Flynn)
"A new genius for taut, compulsive adventure writing.” (Tom Clancy)
“One of the best thriller writers on the planet.”
“Spicy, smart, and entertaining. Kyle Mills knows what he’s doing." (Steve Berry)

“Mills does the large-scale thriller better than anyone else working in the genre today. As a matter of fact, he may do it better than anyone who’s ever sent a character out to save the world.”
