In 1971 Adelaide girl Irene Thornton meets Bon Scott, the singer for local band Fraternity.
This is a moving account of an artist at the height of his powers,and an intimate view of the lows that ended tragically in Bon s early death..
But she also shares details of her incredible bond with this extraordinary man, watching Bon create and perform the music that put him and AC/DC on the world stage.
Irene gives us the scene without the airbrushing: the bitter winters in London with Fraternity, the drinking and drugs, the group living and frayed tempers, and the broken dreams and inner demons.
For the next few years, with Irene by his side, Bon Scott continues a driven but diffi cult journey towards AC/DC and rock n roll fame.
Between Bon and Irene, there is a unique spark; they marry in 1972.
