Fiction

Forty-six years after her father suddenly disappears, Australian intelligence analyst Anthea Tonelli lies in a bed at Balmoral Military Hospital, thinking of the many colossal mistakes her military and intelligence agencies had made over the years. Stricken with cancer, Anthea is on the verge of losing everything—her marriage, her home, and even her career. Anthea is battling to survive in a corrupt world where her government and judiciary often conspire, and together, hide unbelievable atrocities. Worse yet, she is being manipulated by her husband, Andrew, who has but one wish—to destroy her. But when Anthea discovers hundreds of young intelligence recruits have been tortured and murdered by the Australian military and intelligence agencies, she is devastated beyond belief. Suddenly the beautiful country she has always known has become a place where deception, lies, disappearances, collusion, secret treaties, illicit pacts, illegal billion dollar deals, and organized government crime not only live, but thrive. Now Andrea must decide whom she can trust—before it is too late. Based on a true story researched for over twenty years, Spook Justice examines just how far corruption will go.

I have read a book and I found it to be fascinating. In discussion with so many NSW citizens who read this book also I can only say that you are one very talented writer and a great future is in front of you. Back home in Europe I will recomend this book to all my friends (and few are within judicial profession) Yes in Europe we have heard about Judge Spigelman, his approach to law and order. Australian Att general can say whatever he wish to say on national TV but Australian Law has no similarities with Switzerland Law and Order whatsoever. I found his remark offensive actually. Best wishes Agnetta

corruption, bribe and all the crazy things said... The book is well written, with easy, I would never say it took 20 years of preparation. To me it looks like it was written in one breath, one day. Things and events just flows. Paul, I like your book. Lee

Grant said... Everything makes sense now, how NSW Legal System squandered millions of taxpayer dollars and dues money to enrich themselves and expand their power. And why so many decent people are on the edge of powerty. When one combine your book and the real fact of NSW legal system, everything just makes sense Well written, well done

just said... Interesting book, interesting characters and I do believe that here in WA you are far more popular than in NSW. Ever thought to visit WA and talk about your characters from Spook Justice? I do agree with Gentlemen above, Ms Autumn is an outstanding character. I do found Athea very interesting and strong person and would love to know whats happened with her. Actually I hope I will not need to wait another 20 years for so much pleasure :)

Jacklyn said... Your skill to say it 'lightly' with a touch of humour kept me on the edge right till the end. I WANT MORE ps whats happened with Athea?

Nicole said... Everything; from NSW legal & judicial corruption right to the NSW victims of crime, everything is there. It is brutal world and the brutal system but changes must take place. The hardest to fight is corruption and like in your book Australian government offer no solution for the cancer that eats this great country of yours inside out. From the outside everything shines... Great Barier Reef, Opera House, Melbourne night life and Sydneys restaurants and clubs But behind all of that is NSW with its sad state of affairs. I hope one day someone strong will come accross, take over as a PM and turn your country around. I realy hope. Book? I loved your book and would recomend to everyone Cole, Norway

Characters are original, interesting and very creative no matter what they have chosen to pursue in life. I love that the book didnt provide asnwer to everything; the second edition cant come soon enough. The book is great. Montreal

Mia T said... Like in so many countries around the world we always knew that the Faceless Man is here... I knew he was around for more than 200 years; ever present but not visible to human eye. What you did was 'humanized' the Faceless Man and his associates in this game-changing book. A brave move that I'm more than sure one day will turn to a great movie. Well done.

LanaD said... The worst crimes are the crimes thats happening under the "To Serve And Protect" It takes you by surprise as nobody expect 'abuse and discrimination' from the people who are there to protect you from the crime and abuse. It is frightening out there, has always been, now even more than before. Lets hope that things will change with the new NSW Chief Judge. There are huge expectations from this man. I sincerely hope he'll live up to those expectation as NSW is nothing but the desparate state with desparate people living desparate lives. We need the law and order now more than ever. I am in contact with so many young people and it is frightening how many of them are gone overseas, or itend to leave just because of whats going on in our courts. I see PM Gillard as a total failure for ignoring all of this. It is truly frightening

just said... Book is cool, real cool. But for the NSW affairs... Nothing can save our sorry state. I was young, just graduate and full of hope. All of that is gone. I moved to London and have no intention to return to Sydney. I dont think new Chief Judge can save Sydney, theres too much bribe and corruption, too many victims walking around who will never put their lives in the NSW legal system again. At least I can speak for migrants, as I am migrant myself. NSW legal system is collapsing fast. Tragic.

Loretta said... According to many, NSW Judiciary is not only one of the most corrupted legal systems in Asia, but the most corrupted one. Even your own judges think that. They are aware of the problem, they understand what must be done to restore the trust. I hope for the sake of your state future things will change. People need change, everything can fail but the Justice. About the book? I like the book. My mum as well. We wish you well

O'Connor said... This is a crime novels at its finest, I would include amongst the best 100 crime novels ever written. You have talent my man, and a future. Who was that person who said that you wont achieve a thing in your life? how wrong, how very wrong
