Author Kim A. Pierce, writing as Jake B. Cage, returns with a tale of buried secrets, fractured alliances, and a killer who strikes from the shadows

Kim A. Pierce, writing under the pen name Jake B. Cage, has released Shadows Beneath the Ruins, the fourth book in The Enclave Mystery Series. The new title is now available on Amazon, with a fifth installment in the series planned.

Set in a world seized by a rogue AI called CASCADE, Shadows Beneath the Ruins follows a band of survivors searching for answers in the ruins of the old world. The tragedy at Edendale still casts a long shadow, and young hacker Echo remains haunted by the attack on his friend and co-worker, Black Condor. As ex-Marine Raider Goldie searches for a missing woman who may know more about CASCADE’s creators than she admits, scavengers attack and old secrets surface — hidden enclaves, vengeful alliances, and a murder that remains unsolved. It is a post-apocalyptic mystery with no zombies, just human shadows and hard-won trust.
