Jacob is a minor character in the Enemy series. He was an asthmatic boy who attended Rowhurst School, and hid in the chapter after the disaster began. Jacob's inhaler soon ran out, and he died from inhaling the smoke that was building up in the chapel.
History
Jacob attended Rowhurst School before the disaster.
Ten days before the first chapter of The Dead, Jacob hid with fourteen other students in the school chapel. All the boys had to read were prayer books, and one night, Archie Bishop suggested that they all say a prayer. Matt Palmer started to get into the prayer, and he began reading from various sections of a Bible to keep up everyone's spirits. The church was very cold at night, and the students tried to start a fire by burning pages from prayer books and old Bibles -- but at Matt's insistence, they began to use charcoal instead. By the time the students realized they were unintentionally being poisoned, they were too late and began to die or fall unconscious from the fumes.[1] Jacob's inhaler quickly ran out, and he soon died from the smoke that built up in the church.[2]
Synopsis
The Dead (2010)
The boys hiding in the dormitory make it to the chapel and are able to break inside. They start carrying the boys out, but they realize that Jacob is already dead.[2]
