Fade In

Om boken

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. 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? 'Wall to wall action. Great book.' — Brad Thor 'Fade is a badass operator whom even a coma can't stop. Plenty of action, plenty of fun.' — Kirkus Reviews '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
