Detective Jarrod O'Connor

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. 'Police procedure, visceral action and intense drama. Jack Roney's experience as a police detective is front and centre. Would make a cracker of a TV series.' Bryn Smith, author.
