Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.


Chloe Steele, a fictional character from the Left Behind series of novels, was a freshman at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California until the disappearance of millions of people world-wide.

Months before the surprising "vanishings", Chloe's mother, Irene Steele, began attending a new church and claimed to have become a born again believer in Christ. Irene told Chloe she believed that one day soon God would take His people to Heaven in the "blink of an eye."

After the disappearances of both her mother and younger brother, Chloe Steele was forced to decide for herself what had happened.

Chloe and her father, Rayford Steele, soon turned to her mother's church for answers. After discovering most of the congregation had been taken in the vanishings, Chloe and her father met Bruce Barnes, an associate pastor who had been left behind.

Chloe eventually strikes up a friendship with legendary magazine writer Cameron "Buck" Williams. They marry and have a son, Kenny Bruce. Chloe becomes CEO of the International Commodity Co-op, arranging for Christians worldwide to be able to purchase food, goods, and services (after Nicolae Carpathia, Antichrist and potentate of the Global Community, had ordered the application of the Mark of the Beast, it had become impossible for Christians to buy or sell anything since they would not take the Mark).

In Book Eleven, Armageddon, Chloe is drawn out of the Bunker that she, Buck, Ray, and around 200 other believers are hiding in located in San Diego, California. As she leaves to investage a GC ACP she spots 2-3 platoons of GC peacekeepers and takes off away from the bunker. After dropping her ski mask and uzi she is caught by Global Community personnel and taken into custody. She is imprisoned in a small cell in the basement of the GCHQ in San Diego. Later, she is taken east via airplane to a large prison and executed by the guillotine.
