New York Times bestselling author Jay Bonansinga’s latest work is fast-paced and packed with action. The story picks up where The Armageddon Code left off – with The Devil’s Quintet using their powers to fight evil and protect the world. However, their battle against evil is far from over when The Shadow Society is introduced. The Shadow Society is a group of five saintly individuals that have been possessed by demonic entities to counter The Devil’s Quintet. The Shadow Society’s objective is to destroy humanity’s last hope by striking at the Quintet. The stakes are high, and the Devil is pulling all the strings behind the scenes.
