A Second Lease of Life (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781425184919)

It is in Australia while on tour with the band that Phillip meets Kid and on an old-fashioned impulse of 'love at first sight' he takes her to the States and marries her - it turns out to be a union made in heaven. Little did he know that Kid would soon be instrumental in re-uniting him with his long lost, shunned and - unadmitted to himself - feared brother. Kid's home-made religion of Nature as the life-giver, her philosophy of making the most out of life by living one day at the time, her wisdom of having faith in the greatness and goodness of people and her instinctive knowledge of the importance of forgiving - even though unknown even to herself - proves to become the driving force Phillip needs to start reconsidering a decision made in his dim youth and never given an opportunity to be reassessed. Brother David had been sent to fight a war he didn't understand; against an enemy he did not recognize. He came back in one piece, possibly thanks to his superlative skills in karate fighting, but back in his home country he spends years running from the police and from the law - years of confusion, frustration and despair. And then ... on his release from jail after a lengthy sentence he finds his brother and sister-in-law waiting for him with open arms, their hearts filled with optimism, courage and love.
