“Undercover agents. A solemn delivery. One family secret that should have stayed buried. The Children of Abel is a nightmare of biblical proportions, with Brett O’Reilly dragging readers into the bloody depths of corruption and betrayal."

—Ursula K Raphael, Reviewer, Astradaemon's Lair

Just got back from my nightly walk. I love my neighbourhood.

�"Dark and winding, O'Reilly takes you on a journey not often travelled in the horror world. From heart-pounding suspense to biblical cults, Children of Abel had me hooked from the first chapter, and can't wait to see where Brett goes from here."
—RJ Roles, author of Pieces of Me

Spring of 2021 was when I began writing a labour of love: #ChildrenOfAbel. I finished the 1st draft in August of 2024, all of it handwritten.

To see it now—ready to be released to the world—it’s been quite the journey.

FBI Agent Lucas Thorne and his partner, Kendall Waters, head to the remote valley of Hemelshol to investigate a Mennonite farmer buying suspicious amounts of ANFO: explosive fertiliser.

What they aren’t aware of is the machinations of not just a cult, but an ancient entity pulling their strings.

I’ve been so focused on #ChildrenOfAbel that I haven’t mentioned #BuyMeACoffee in awhile!

Saturdays are my writing days, and I could use some help in buying my mochas! By buying me a coffee through the app, you get to read some of my flash fiction!

The #ChildrenOfAbel cover reveal is happening on September 30th, just twelve days away! Keep an eye out for it, and in the meantime, check out Tanya’s other work at www.dollymommadesign.com!

On a snowy December night during the COVID pandemic, Callie Smithers raced across an icy lot to a steel door to escape a werewolf. (“One Hundred Yards”, Aftertaste and Other Stories)

She survived, believing it to be the worst night of her life.

She was dead wrong.

#ChildrenOfAbel. Coming soon.
