‘It is clear how much Roney’s own personal experience in law enforcement informed the story. Roney doesn’t scrape over any details. A story for crime and mystery lovers alike, The Angels Wept will keep you clasped in its grip until the end.’ Maddison Clarke, Reviewer
‘A rollercoaster-ride combining police procedure, visceral action and intense drama. Jack Roney’s talent as a writer and his experience as a police detective is front and centre as the story swings between the main character’s personal demons and the murder investigation that frames the story. This ought to be an ABC miniseries. Time to read the sequel.’ Bryn Smith, Author of 'Magnus Nights: The Helios Incident'
‘As a lover of crime thrillers, The Angels Wept is a fantastic, accomplished read. Unlike many flawed and jaded detectives, Roney’s protagonist, Detective Sergeant O’Connor, is a hard-working professional who somehow balances working in the Child Protection Unit. Roney’s background as a police officer means the procedural aspects of the action are believable and the Australian landscape is beautifully described, whether in a town or country setting. Highly recommended.’ Diane Clarke, Reviewer
‘I could not put this book down. I kept telling myself, okay, 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. Saxon, Author
‘Fast-paced, with gritty action, frightening antagonists and a well-thought-out plot. I found this book almost impossible to put down. Roney’s life experience in the police force is evident in his writing — a chilling ‘ride-along’ through some brutal crime scenes in rural Australia. There were parts, especially as a parent, when I held my breath, desperate to see what unfolded. Well done Mr Roney. I cannot wait for more.’ L. J. Duncan, Author
‘From derelict farmhouses to cosy suburbia, the setting is vividly depicted. The cast of characters are well imagined, and multi-dimensional. I thoroughly enjoyed this debut police procedural action thriller. The author is a former police officer and his expertise shines through. I look forward to seeing what this talented writer does next.’ Poppy Gee, Author

This rug is such good quality and makes me so happy every time I look at it. I'm using this one for a top cover over my bedspread. It's a perfect match for my room and linen. I have another that I use as a throw for the lounge and a picnic rug! In LOVE.

The postage was incredibly quick and the quality and colours far exceeded what I thought. The pics don't do them justice. Truly unique rugs that I doubt will date anytime soon. I would recommend - beautiful rug and great customer service.

My husband argued with me saying we didn’t need a new blanket. Once we received this one, he quickly changed his tune. It’s cozy, soft and warm. I love the design and boho vibe it adds to our home. High quality product at an affordable price.
