Second chances always come with a price, attached to consequences of action - good and bad. Jim Cross is one of us, just a guy trying to make sense of it all, doing his best in a world where mercy and justice are in the abstract. Sixty years old, broke, and unemployed, he makes a decision that moves his life into the realm of the surreal - a world where no quarter is given and even less is expected. He finds out that there is a higher calling, a path less traveled. In all adventures the outcome is never sure. The battle is waged. The blood is shed, and even then victory hangs in the balance. SHADE OF ANGELS is a story of great reward through staggering effort and sacrifice, a test of will and courage spanning this life and the next. Second chances always come with a price....always.
