Furey's War

Jack Furey is a decent man caught up in an indecent time. Retired police sergeant Jack Furey is celebrating his 100th birthday. After a visit from an old friend, he finds himself reliving the past. Suddenly, it’s 1942 and the US troops are about to descend on the town of Wangamba, Australia, where Jack is expected to maintain law and order. When an Australian soldier on leave is murdered, he has to work out who was responsible and why.

Homecountry

It is 1987 and Peter Clancy, hard drinking Melbourne Truth journalist, returns to his home town to settle his mother’s estate. Peter’s two-day visit to Clarke’s Flat stretches to eight as he is unwillingly drawn into the sinister secrets of this outback Queensland town.

Thornydevils

It is Melbourne 1989. While investigating organised crime, Peter Clancy is caught up in a sinister plot involving drug importation, police corruption, and some very kinky sex.

Blurline

Australian journo Peter Clancy is in London this time, working for a notorious scandal sheet. While writing salacious stories on celebrities, Clancy poses as a biographer to dig the dirt on drug- and alcohol-raddled Olivia Michaels, once a star of the screen.

Dark Water

Peter Clancy is back. Back in Queensland’s Far North, that is — the place he’s spent a lifetime trying to leave. Clancy couldn’t refuse his ‘uncle’ Sam’s insistence he ‘do something’ about the destruction of the family graveyard and the threat to the sacred sites of Sam’s ancestors from the new mine operations at Clarkes Flat.

Flamekeeper

A crime reporter is in San Francisco investigating multiple leads in the hope of a Pulitzer-winning story - unsolved serial killings, hate crimes against gays, dodgy goings-on at an evangelist church. Death threats from 'the Flamekeeper' are all in a day's work, but the the day of reckoning draws nearer.

MY BOOKS

Peter Clancy is an amalgam of characters from crime fiction and film noir- a world-weary type.

Sydney Daily Telegraph
Very definitely earning place in the genre of murder-mystery writing.

Blue Wolf Reviews
Author, T.W.Lawless, comes out swinging with his second thriller about a crusading journalist.

Courier Mail
Entertaining, well researched and flowing from London to America and back again, this is another entertaining, fast paced crime thriller from the pen of T.W. Lawless.

Blue Wolf Reviews
A lot of blood-curdling action. It's topical, satirical, biting. TW Lawless’s style is unapologetically unique, and that's part of his allure for me. All in all, a fun ride.

A Most Avid Reader.
Typical of TW Lawless, Flamekeeper is a no-holds-barred, well-crafted thriller, full of riveting characters and sassy dialogue. He weaves his own brand of irreverent humour through the book, making it a rollicking ride.

A Most Avid Reader.
