Kidnap
Description
Some lines can't be crossed. Some battles can't be avoided.
Merry Tamlin thought she could leave her past behind. For five years, the former special forces operative has been hiding in the shadows of Cowbridge, working security at the Blue Moon-a seedy nightclub where the rules are simple: stay detached, avoid trouble, and never look back.
But when an old comrade begs for her help to rescue his kidnapped daughter, Merry is forced to confront the part of herself she thought she'd buried. The mission seems straightforward: locate the girl, extract her, and vanish again.
In Cowbridge's underbelly, where crime runs deep and the gang responsible plays by their own brutal rules, nothing is ever simple. As the streets turn into a battleground, Merry faces a choice: stay in the shadows or step into the light-and risk everything to save an innocent life.
Some lines can't be crossed. But to rescue the girl, Merry might have to cross them all.

Person
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.
