by Regent T. St. Claire, Anthony C. Ferrante, Marc Sasso (Illustrator)

Book Cayce finds himself trying to save Jenny, an abused Goth girl whose only wish for her birthday is that an "Angel of Death" would save her from her stepfather's Rick's evil clutches. About the In a grim, pre-apocalyptic metropolis, a mysterious, rogue angel named CAYCE has been sentenced by Heaven to roam the Earth for 1,000 years alone, but only allowed to spend the final moments with those who are about to take their own lives. While Heaven hopes that seeing first-hand how terrible suicide is will force Cayce to embrace the celestial law which forbids it. His penance, however, only strengthens his beliefs to the contrary. In their final hour, Cayce offers each of these hopeless souls a shiny, candy apple, black as a raven's wing at midnight. One bite, a last request granted, and the deal is done. As their time in this cold and brutal world quickly ticks away, the strange angel ministers a moment of compassion to the forsaken, but what does HE want? ...their souls - BEFORE they are damned and harvested by Hell. Misunderstood and maligned, Cayce wants to keep these souls for himself, to protect and offer them sanctuary - a place to call home. To this end, he has been secretly building a legion of these damned throwaways in order to carry out his macabre plan which threatens to hasten Armageddon. ...But there are many forces at play that don't approve of or even fully understand what Cayce is doing. WELLS, Cayce's mentor angel, is sent to Earth by Heaven to find out exactly what he's up to, while the son of the Devil, MARLOWE, has come here to reclaim what rightfully belongs to his father. As Armageddon approaches and Cayce's plan materializes, the GOOD, the BAD, and the MISUNDERSTOOD all collide in this Gothic, Dark Fantasy as "The power of many will become The Power of One."
