Jacob Curzo Crawley returns in PART II of the COMPENDIUM TWENTY-THREE series in Shadow of Death. After spending a week with his newly discovered guardian angel Maddox, Jacob continues to explore his recent revelation and attempts to warn the group of what is coming. However, the information is not for every ear to hear and some are unwilling to accept the warning that Jacob has for them. The tension this creates among the angels and humans threatens to pull them apart, and it is up to Jacob to keep the group from splintering and falling prey to the servants of the underworld. Unbeknownst to Jacob or any of his company, he is not the only soul who possesses the information that offers them an advantage in the days to come. Shadow of Death sees a flurry of activity as the mortal world and the angels assigned to protect them prepare for battle with Lucifer and his demons. The hours continue to countdown and only time will tell who will be prepared and who will be defeated.

Jacob Curzo Crawley believes he is a less than interesting construction worker living in the heartland. He thought he was destined for greater things after he saved the life of a classmate in high school, but the opportunities did not present themselves as he had hoped. On a typical ride to work one morning he is confronted by a stranger who appears out of thin air next to him in his little red pickup truck, nearly costing them their lives. Much to Jacob's disbelief the man claims to be his guardian angel, Maddox. But Jacob is not the only human to learn that they have been followed for their entire lives by a guardian. Rather, the entire world now faces the fact that there is a God, a Devil and servants of both struggling to control the Earth. Jacob, his friend Pete, a former flame Quinn and a cocky tag-along named Luke are accompanied by their angels and enjoy a time of peace and enlightenment that is interrupted 7 days after "A-Day" by forces that are eager to take over the world once and for all.
