A Kangaroo Island story of love, family conflict, betrayal and triumph.

Tony Boyle’s love for Kangaroo Island, his early experiences as a wool and beef producer along with the real life issues and struggles of his family life, his father's alcoholism and mother’s tragic death, inspired him to write Beyond Passion, released May 2007 to rave reviews:

Tony Boyle ... sets a pace and creates an undercurrent of intrigue that reminds me of John Grisham at his best. - Mark Graham, critically acclaimed author of The Missing Sixth, The Harbinger, and The Fire Theft. Denver, Colorado. more...

The power is in the story

Growing up on the unique and pristine landscape of Kangaroo Island, 20 miles off the rugged coast of South Australia, Tony Boyle learned about hard work in the knockabout world of the sheep and cattle farmer, but with "...restlessness in my gut, a drive to find out what was over there..."

His yearning for discovery of the world 'over there' took him to Sydney where he started out modeling and acting, and then writing and producing videos. He covered stories of displaced peoples in Africa and Afghanistan and traveled to Europe and the USA.

Since settling in the USA in the early nineties, Tony continues working in the entertainment industry, without ever losing his Australian charm and love for a good story: "....I get a kick out of spinning a yarn or two, especially about my travels, the miracles and the people from around..."

Often returning to his roots, Kangaroo Island has become the setting for his first novel, Beyond Passion, a soaring Australian epic of the lives of two families - a brilliantly woven tapestry of Australian character with its idiosyncrasies, extraordinary tenacity and deadpan humor.

Tony and his American wife, Kathy, return at least once every year to Kangaroo Island... "There’s a mystique about KI that speaks to the soul, reminds me of what’s really important and tops me up with gratitude."
