Cattle Raid

Some Chains Must Be Broken.

After years of keeping her head down and her conscience quiet, Merry Tamlin takes one last job - a data heist inside a Nexus agri-facility on the fringes of the grid. But what should be a clean extraction unravels into a moral reckoning when she discovers what's really being harvested: people.

Cut off from allies, hunted by corporate kill teams, and forced to lead a breakout through fire, forest, and collapsing tunnels, Merry and her crew must decide what they stand for and what they're willing to risk.

With Nexus closing in, and the line between mercenary and martyr growing thin, Merry faces the brutal truth: some chains don't come off quietly. Some must be shattered.

About the Author

Claire started out as a fantasy writer, drawn to the sweeping landscapes, intricate magic systems, and epic tales of adventure that define the genre. But when a close friend, Sam, created a vivid cyberpunk world too irresistible to ignore, Claire found herself stepping into the gritty neon haze of dystopian fiction. With Sam's permission and support, she has spent the last few years bringing that world to life through fast-paced, character-driven novels that explore rebellion, survival, and the fight against impossible odds.

Though cyberpunk wasn't her first love, Claire has found it to be the perfect playground for exploring big ideas, flawed heroes, and the resilience of the human spirit. Whether it's building dystopian worlds or weaving fantasy epics, her focus is always on crafting stories that leave readers thinking long after they've turned the final page.

When Claire isn't writing, she's recording episodes of Domesday Delving, planning the next installment in her series, or enjoying quiet moments with a good book, noodles, and probably too much caffeine.
