Buckle up, thriller fans—because Brad Taylor is back in the hot seat, and this time, he's bringing Into the Gray Zone, a geopolitical barnburner that drops Pike Logan into the heart of chaos in India.

In this pulse-pounding episode, we sit down with New York Times bestselling author and former Special Forces officer to dig deep into his latest novel—hailed by Mark Greaney as “a knockout punch of a novel.” From covert operations to real-world threats, Brad walks us through the shadowy world of gray zone warfare where the lines between peace and war are dangerously blurred.

We talk inspiration, tradecraft, and the terrifyingly real scenarios that fuel Pike’s latest mission. When a terror attack during a CIA–India intel meeting is written off as routine, Pike Logan isn't buying it—and he’s proven right when a cascade of deadly operations threatens to ignite global conflict. From the bustling streets of Delhi to the iconic Taj Mahal, it’s a high-octane race to stop an invisible enemy hiding behind proxies and profit motives.

What’s really going on behind the scenes of global terrorism? How does Brad craft such terrifyingly plausible geopolitical thrillers? And what’s next for Pike Logan?

All that and more in this can't-miss episode of The Crew Reviews. Subscribe, stream, and strap in—because this mission gets personal.

Praise for Midnight Black: “Greaney’s action scenes are as kinetic and chaotic as ever—especially an exhilarating chase through the Moscow subway—but it’s Court’s tender humanity when it comes to protecting his allies that shines brightest. This is one of Greaney’s best yet.” -Publishers Weekly

"If there was any doubt whatsoever, MIDNIGHT BLACK-one of the best books I have ever covered-cements Mark Greaney's place as one of the premier titans in the genre today. This is the book that Gray Man fans have hoped for, and rest assured, Greaney dials it way up, fully unleashing Court Gentry and holding nothing back to give his readers an unmatched experience that not only resets the bar but will, in all likelihood, ultimately prove to be the measuring stick future thrillers are judged against." -The Real Book Spy

“Things come alive when Zoya is introduced. Her jousting with the power-mad twerp who controls her life in the Russian hellhole prison is on a different level. Does the journey end in the lovers' reunion? That's for Greaney to tell in the last chapter, where he reveals the true reason for Zoya's arrest and gives action fans what they want.” -Booklist

Mark Greaney's research for the Gray Man novels, including The Chaos Agent, Burner, Sierra Six, Relentless, One Minute Out, Mission Critical, Agent in Place, Gunmetal Gray, Back Blast, Dead Eye, Ballistic, On Target, and The Gray Man, has taken him to more than thirty-five countries, and he has trained alongside military and law enforcement in the use of firearms, battlefield medicine, and close-range combative tactics. With Marine Lt. Col. Rip Rawlings, he wrote the New York Times bestseller Red Metal. He is also the author of the New York Times bestsellers Tom Clancy Support and Defend, Tom Clancy Full Force and Effect, Tom Clancy Commander in Chief, and Tom Clancy True Faith and Allegiance. With Tom Clancy, he coauthored Locked On, Threat Vector, and Command Authority.
