The truth is stranger than fiction-and far more dangerous.

The Unassuming Spy is a gripping true story of Lt. Col. Mitch Fadem, Ph.D., a decorated military toxicologist turned CIA asset, whose secret missions spanned Cold War Russia, post-9/11 Afghanistan, and beyond. From teaching chemistry in Ohio to negotiating with Russian KGB operatives, Fadem's journey is anything but ordinary.

Drawing from decades of classified assignments, this memoir takes readers inside the shadowy world of covert operations, scientific espionage, bioweapon defense, and international intelligence. With unexpected humor, raw honesty, and chilling detail, Fadem reveals the personal toll of operating under constant threat-without backup or acknowledgment.

This is not a novel. This is the firsthand account of a man who lived on the edge of danger while serving a country that would never officially admit he existed.

Perfect for fans of spy thrillers, military memoirs, and nonfiction readers who crave behind-the-scenes stories that were never meant to be told.

Prepare to rethink what you know about espionage, loyalty, and one man's enduring mission to protect and serve-from the shadows.
