The Fades

Seventeen-year-old Paul struggles with home and sixth-form life as apocalyptic visions haunt his dreams. When he crosses paths with an outcast loner called Neil who can explain what Paul is seeing, his life is transformed.

Neil takes Paul to see an ancient Fade, who foresees Paul's importance in the looming battle. Realising how high the stakes have become, Paul decides the upcoming school ball will be his big goodbye to his old life.

As Paul's powers manifest themselves, his friendship with Mac and relationship with Jay are pushed to breaking point. Meanwhile, a host of new Angelics arrive in town just as the Fades' plans evolve in a chilling new direction.

Up is down and black is white as Paul's family and friends struggle to cope in the aftermath of his accident. Meanwhile, the Angelics are torn apart by moral compromises and a strange new man with deadly intentions moves relentlessly through town.

Paul came back to life for a reason, but he's just not sure what that reason might be. Meanwhile, more Fades are being reborn and nothing can stop them. As they infiltrate the town, Paul's home life and Angelic life are put on a collision course.

A town left deserted, an Angelic on the edge of desperation, a Fade on the cusp of victory, and a reluctant 17-year-old boy with visions of the apocalypse. It all comes down to this final showdown. Inevitably, people will die and ash will fall.
