The Australian-based author of the international bestsellers "The Power of One" and "Tandia" celebrates the life of his son Damon and describes the difficulties of coming to terms with his death from AIDS at the age of 24.

Proceeds from the book are being donated to the Haemophiliac Foundation of Australia.
