A death pact and shocking betrayal. A deluded killer. A small town detective pushed to the brink. Set in the rural Australian town of Lockyer, Detective Sergeant Jarrod O'Connor is thrust into a baffling double homicide case. When a couple is gunned down inside their idyllic country homestead, three children barely escape with their lives and hold the key to breaking the case wide open. In search of a motive, O'Connor discovers there are others who share the killer's twisted delusions and taste for immortality. Tormented by his own demons, O'Connor forms a strong bond with the children who he must protect at the risk of placing his own family in danger. As O'Connor pieces together clues, he is drawn closer to a deadly confrontation and thrilling climax.

Industry Reviews

'The Angels Wept is a book you simply won't be able to put down until the last gripping page. Heart wrenching at times but a must read... a magnificent ending to a thrilling tale.' Goodreads. 


'An edge of your seat, hang on for dear life thriller. The gritty descriptions and palpable tension will hook you in. You won't want to look away.' J. Blackmon - Author. 


'I kept telling myself, ok, just one more chapter, and then five more chapters would be done. This was one of those stories that wouldn't let me go and I'm still thinking about it a week after I finished it.' 

S. Faxon - Author. 


'A nail-biting thriller that unravels at just the right pace to keep the reader turning the pages. I read it in two days.' G. Anderson - Author. 


'Fast paced, with gritty action, frightening antagonists and a well-thought-out plot. Roney's experience as a police officer is evident in his writing. This book has everything a good crime thriller should have: a loveable protagonist, a psychopath killer with a superbly created motive, a ton of 'hold on to your seat' action and fantastic twists. There were parts when I held my breath, desperate to see what unfolded next.' 

L.J. Duncan - Author.
