The Angels Wept by Jack Roney
An absolute cracker of an Audiobook, "The Angels Wept" is the first instalment of The Detective Jarrod O'Conner Series. Written by Ex-Detective Jack Roney, this Crime/Thriller has a deadly precision when it comes to the genre of Crime.
Roney runs workshops for Crime Authors to get their details as specific to the industry as possible. A Crime Thriller written by a Law Man, you can't get better than that.
"The Angels Wept" was Roney's first foray into the genre, more as a tool to process the sad cases he experienced in the job. This audiobook, set in a small rural Australian town, gets right into the thick of it. Murder, mayhem and the occult make for one harrowing tale.
"The Angels Wept" is the First book in the Detective Jarrod O'Connor trilogy. Roney backs this up with "The Demons Woke" and "The Shadows Watch", due for release soon.
The narration is excellent and absolutely in alignment with the story, taking the listener deep into this harrowing tale, dragging them to hell and back.
Highly Recommended.
