Book 5 in the Dawn of Deception series.
The coast survived the collapse. Now someone is coming to collect a debt.
Mercer survived the raid on the northern depot.
He remembers Davis’s name—and he has mistaken a desperate mission to save dying children
for a declaration of war.
Warrenton falls first.
Then Mercer sends his terms to Cannon Beach: return the medicine that saved their children,
surrender Davis and Ivan, and give him a fifth of every harvest and every catch the coastal
communities can preserve.
Refuse, and he will take another cove every morning.
Mercer does not destroy what he can control. He takes the boats, limits the fuel, divides
families, and turns hunger into obedience. Every community that falls makes the next one
easier to claim.
Sloane Delaney’s new alliance is still fragile. Supplies are thin, the cove signals have
been compromised, and some settlements believe surrender is safer than standing together.
Every rescue also draws defenders away from Cannon Beach and leaves its open gate more
exposed.
To remain free, the coast must learn to fight differently. Sloane will have to hold the
alliance together. Davis must face the man he once spared. And the people of Cannon Beach
must turn salvaged technology, shifting water, and their knowledge of the coast against an
enemy who believes everything useful can be owned.
This time, survival will not be enough.
The coast will have to fight back.
Unleashed is Book 5 in A. R. Shaw’s

divided.
