Gwen’s Misery Beach Cottage: A Post-Apocalyptic Survival Series

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

In her fifties, Gwen thought starting over meant learning to live alone. Then the world changed around her.

With her marriage behind her and her son at university, Gwen moves into her parents’ old cottage on Australia’s Misery Beach. She hopes the ocean, a home of her own, and an unusual Devon Rex named Canary will help her find her footing.

An asteroid disaster shatters that fragile peace. Tsunamis hit the coast, communication breaks down, and Gwen cannot reach her son. The cottage offers shelter, but surviving means venturing into a devastated landscape and putting her faith in people she has only just met.

As neighbors and strangers draw together, Gwen discovers that a new beginning can take forms she never imagined.

Gwen’s Misery Beach Cottage is book one in A. R. Shaw’s Misery Beach series: a character-driven post-apocalyptic story about courage, companionship, and rebuilding a life when the familiar world is gone.
