Biography

Kenneth Gordon Eade (born December 29, 1957) is an American environmental and political activistand author, best known for his political and legal thrillers. He has been described by critics as, "one of our strongest thriller writers on the scene and the fact that he draws his stories from the contemporary philosophical landscape is very much to his credit." Eade's novels are unique, in that they are based on solid research and current events that affect our daily lives. They are entertaining, but also educate readers about their civil liberties. Eade's first novel, An Involuntary Spy shed light on the dark subject of genetically engineered foods and was acclaimed as the novel which just may break the real life controversy over GMO foods right open. In 2016, the fifth book in Eade's Brent Marks Legal Thriller Series, Killer.com, won best legal thriller in the Beverly Hills Book Awards and the bronze medal in Fiction, Mystery & Murder in the 2016 Reader's Favorite International Book Awards. His latest novel, Paladine, is currently a quarter-finalist in the Publishers Weekly BookLife Prize in Fiction.
