Entangled: After the Crash Book 5
War has arrived in Redemption, overshadowing the attempts to put a stop to O.N.E. while a hidden threat lurks in the shadows in Book 5 of After the Crash.
Tired of the usual post-apocalyptic tale? Welcome to your new addiction.
When a new nationwide city-planning program goes online, the results are more than disastrous. They’re apocalyptic.
As tens of millions die across the country, the world’s technology, power grids and infrastructure collapse, effectively throwing the planet back into the Stone Age.
In one of the few towns that escape the worst of the crash, a small-knit community called Redemption struggles to survive as others seek refuge behind their walls - including those who know more about the disaster than they let on….
Explore the world after the crash in this 6-book mini-series-esque adventure featuring realistic characters, a unique story and heart-pounding action.

Omg, the ending to this book was great. I’m excited to read the next one. Who would have thought that about Hope…

Entangled - a review by Rosemary Kenny.
After the Crash series Book 5, by Tara Ellis and Mike Kraus, continues the multiple storylines, of the eponymous Entangled, (a terrorist organisation) the residents of Redemption, and the battles for survival of the many victims of a worldwide conspiracy.
Wes is still on the run, with his modified version of the Helix computer virus, that's wiped out technology across the globe. What will he do?
Redemption is under attack by merciless raiders...some of whom are known to them.
And Derrick, (aka Watchtower) feels he's splitting into four personalities...but isn't fully in control of any of them!
A dangerous and volatile situation, in which conspiracies abound, up to the highest levels.
In the absence of realistic, practical solutions, who will survive? Get Entangled to find out!
Recommended to fans of Alistair MacLean, J.R.R.Tolkien and Sean Fletcher.

As always, thanks for the helpful preface and recap. There is a lot of action in the story as the story builds towards a conclusion and the next book. I had some suspicions about a character over the last few books, but they had dropped off of the radar, so I decided they were not an issue. WRONG (though discovering I was correct at 12:30 am and saying "I knew it" woke up my husband). This was well-written (as this series has been all along), and it had a cracker ending to set up the next book.

The danger and the tensions continue in Redemption. Wes still has the Helix and is trying to figure out what to do to stop the disaster. Suspenseful to the end. Impossible to not enjoy the book.

Sooo good
It was impossible
to put down! I am just praying there is one more book to this series! So different from other post-apocalypse type stories.

The entire series has been thrilling and beyond anything I expected. Now, if I can only survive until the last book comes out, maybe then I will come to understand how and IF the world and the people of Redemption can come back from this cataclysm..... A fantastic and fast paced series!

What a Great Series
I really, really have enjoyed this series so much and I'm someone who quits a book after fifty pages if it doesn't grab me. This is a not to be missed series. Can't wait to read the next one. Bravo !

Best in the series, so far.
The ending of this book has me reeling. What a cliffhanger. This whole series has been excellent. The plot is written very well and the characters are very well developed.
This is a great story without unnecessary swearing! Now, on to the next book in the series!

Entangled
What a horrible way to end the series. Don't bother reading 5 books. Completely disappointed & mad. Seriously, this was ridiculous.

I thought this was a filler book, just to prolong the story. Finally it came through at the end. Ready for the big climax. Bring on book 6!
