Publisher Description

#1 New York Times and #1 Wall Street Journal bestselling author Brad Thor brings his darkest and most intriguing thriller yet—a terrifying story of espionage and betrayal—brilliantly paced with superb nonstop action.

Born in the shadows and kept from heads of state, there are some missions so deadly, so sensitive, that they simply don’t exist. When one such mission goes horribly wrong, a wave of dramatic terrorist attacks is set in motion. Their goal: the complete and total collapse of the United States.

With the CIA’s intelligence abilities hobbled, former Navy SEAL Team 6 member turned covert counterterrorism operative Scot Harvath launches an audacious plan to infiltrate the terrorists’ network and prevent one of the biggest threats the United States has ever faced.

Simultaneously, a foreign wet work team has been sent to California. Their target: one of Hollywood’s most famous filmmakers. While working on a secret documentary project, movie producer Larry Salomon has unknowingly exposed one of the world’s wealthiest and most politically connected powerbrokers—a man with a radical anti-American agenda poised to plunge the nation into deadly, irreversible chaos.

As the plots rocket to their pulse-pounding conclusion and the identities of the perpetrators are laid stunningly bare, Harvath will be left with only one means to save America. Unable to trust anyone, he will be forced to go Full Black.

Intense and frighteningly realistic, Full Black is hands down, Brad Thor’s most riveting thriller to date.

"I just finished the audio version of Full Black and was blown away. I found myself cheering on the way to work listening to chapter 32. The manner in which Brad Thor weaves real, current political climate into a work of fiction is inspiring. I hated getting to work each morning because that meant I had to put Scott Hovath on hold for 10 hours. The ending had me on the edge of my seat and now I can't wait for the next installment."

    " I felt that he got to political for to much of the book. The action was not as good as the other Scoot Harvath novels. "

    " I usually love his books, but this one had very less suspense. All the baddies were revealed at the onset itself, leaving little to the imagination. While the (somewhat) soppy ending would delight romance fans, I was left wanting more. "

    " Listened to this while travelling to N.C. and back. Entertaining. The 20 minute interview with the author and reader was a nice bonus. Engaging characters, relatively good dialog, and good action. Not great fiction, but a good listen. "

    " #1 New York Times bestselling author Brad Thor's 10th Scott Harvath thriller is the series' most intense and gripping yet. Another military thriller where the government is involved with the terrorists so Harvath is pretty much on his own to save the day. "

    " This was my first Brad Thor book and I enjoyed the story overall. The only complaints I had was the fact that the story seemed to take a while to develop and there wasn't enough action throughout. "

    " Think this was my last Brad Thor. Read this one out of order. Thor's over reaching views came out more in last two books. Good stuff but I've had enough. "

    " I listened to this book. First one I've read by Thor. He certainly connects all the dots in this political crime thriller to the point that makes me wonder what is real and what is fiction. All the terrorist and economic plotlines seem completely plausible and it scares the crap out of me. Wow. "

    " Brad Thor is usually one of my favorite authors, but this book didn't make the grade of his best works. I love the thrill of the CIA and the suspense of the book but too much political comments that make you loose interest. "

    " Another intense, exciting thriller from Brad Thor. Scott Harvath is a chip of the old Mitch Rapp. Sometimes the subject matter in these books are too close to home and feel like real threats (which they may truly be). Hard to put down once you start. "

    " Not Thor's best book. Compared to the last book I read from him, this was much less action and much more conspiracy theory. I'm not sure he could have been more obvious about the character James Standing being modeled after George Soros. Not a bad read if you need something fairly mindless. "
