The Tears of the Rainbow Serpent
(2026)(Book 16 in the Tom Wagner Adventure series)
A novel by Roberts & Maclay
A desperate cry for help. An ancient culture. A merciless fight for survival.
When Tom's grandfather reaches out from the Australian Outback with an urgent plea for help, Tom Wagner, Hellen de Mey, and François Cloutard drop everything and rush Down Under. But when it emerges that Tom's grandfather stands accused of murder, a nightmare awaits them: with no infrastructure and none of the financial or logistical backing of Van Rensburg, ARGUS, or UNESCO, Tom, Hellen, and Cloutard face a whole new kind of challenge.
Piece by piece, a startling truth takes shape — one bound up with one of the greatest myths of the Australian Aboriginal peoples: the mysterious Songlines.
But what could a brutal biker gang possibly have to do with ancient Aboriginal legend?
What awaits Tom, Hellen, and Cloutard in the Outback besides parched deserts, raging cyclones, and the most venomous creatures on Earth?
And what role do the colonial architects of Australia's settlement — men like Sir Thomas Brisbane and Henry Ayers — play in it all?
From the red heart of the Outback to sacred sites older than memory, the hunt is on for a secret the land itself has kept hidden for millennia.
If you're a fan of Kevin Tumlinson, J. Robert Kennedy, Alex Lukeman, Rick Jones, and Andrew Clawson don't miss "The Tears of the Rainbow Serpent" — packed with historical mysteries, ancient artifacts, globe-spanning conspiracies, breakneck action, and a healthy dose of humor!
Grab the sixteenth Tom Wagner adventure and buckle up for a white-knuckle ride you won't be able to put down.
Genre: Thriller
