Alstrom (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781739100209)

2019... In Spain, at a remote mountain retreat centre, Tyra Alstrom is facing her 65th birthday alone. It wasn't always like this. In 1976, Alstrom, the band formed by her brother, and fronted by Tyra, had just recorded their first album, and were about to embark on a European Tour. After years of the pub, club & college circuit, they were finally on the brink of success. And as one of the few 'out' singers in 1970's rock, Tyra had never been short of admirers. But away from the spotlight, Tyra's life was spiralling out of control. In love with a woman who was out of bounds, haunted by the dark secrets in her family, and fighting a constant battle against crippling performance anxiety, she was descending rapidly into dependence on drugs & alcohol. When she walked away, she wrecked the dreams of everyone she loved. 43 years later, she's still living in self-imposed exile. She can't imagine anyone ever forgiving her, because she finds it impossible to forgive herself. But then an old Alstrom song makes a surprise entry into the charts. The band are reforming. And the love of her life is free at last. Can Tyra face her demons & come home? And is it ever too late to say you're sorry?
