When Jack and five peers explore the dark world beneath the Academy, they discover a century-old journal that summons them to an epic journey of danger, death, and hidden fortune. Along the way, they face physical and spiritual enemies that threaten their lives and strive to destroy their hope in God.

In book two of The Jack Sutherington series, follow Jack and Emily and their four peers as God directs their paths to different parts of the country and the world. As they obey the divine will, the students are summoned to a gang encounter in Los Angeles, terrorism in Jerusalem, an assault on the beaches of Florida, a visit by a spiritual being deep in the woods of northern Minnesota, and a battle against darkness to bring a lost soul into the kingdom of the Beloved Son. Pursued by Light chronicles the unforgettable adventures that await those who love God.

When the six Academy students return from winter break, dark personalities-both human and spiritual-begin to gather around their school. Who will stand strong and who will fall before the mounting presence of evil?

Jack and his classmates discover and decipher a century-old cryptic message that brings them a step closer to solving five mysterious murders. Jack and Emily come face-to-face with the evil Draegan DaFoe, the pagan police commissioner whose life purpose is to locate a massive treasure buried beneath the school campus.
