This beautiful memoir is peopled by the famous, the fringe dwellers, the rebels and those whose flame flickered all too briefly. It delves deep into troubled lives and Anna's own life-saving search for spiritual health. In this quest, we are taken to the hyper-cool music scenes of 1960's Birmingham and bohemian London. We wander the mountains of Afghanistan, admire the low riders of Miami, dance with David Bowie and hang loose in Jamaica.

     Reading about this remarkable life we are given a sense of being there both emotionally and viscerally as we travel a world shared with people such as Bob Marley, Barbara Hulanicki of Biba fame, Chris Blackwell of Island Records and countless other fascinating characters who, whether famous or unknown are treated with the same sensitivity and compassion.  Anna was instrumental in the rejuvenation of Miami's South Beach and Chris Blackwell describes her as 'a true and genuine friend with a strong spirit and a sense of humour that's vital when times are tough'.
