Shattered

She’s a stranger to the outside world. He’s seen far too much of its dark side. As tragedy unleashes terror on the farm, can Bridey and Cole work together to bring peace and love to Mindaleny Ridge?

Bridey McCaffrey’s life has never been perfect. All she’s ever known is control. Under strict rules, she is isolated from the community, a prisoner at Mindaleny Ridge. But as tragedy strikes on the farm, a new nightmare unfolds for her and her three children. When she receives a mysterious call for help, what is uncovered will open the doors to hell. It will take all her remaining strength and courage to keep herself and her children safe.

Sergeant Cole Delaney is looking forward to some quiet, small-town policing, until he realises that secrets run deep in the town of Moonie River. And the family living out at Mindaleny Ridge appear to be a magnet for trouble. He’s no longer arresting goats for chewing up Mrs Lee’s petunias or breaking up fights over a poker game in the park. There is something far more sinister going on in his town. And his growing attraction to Bridey makes him even more determined to keep her and her young family safe.

Together, Cole and Bridey follow a trail of murder and manipulation to catch a killer. Can they end his reign of terror to find happiness together before it’s too late?
