Always a Rolling Stone Alan Greenhalgh

Always a Rolling Stone is a true story based upon one man's lifelong struggle and triumph over adversity. Likened to Frank McCourt's "Angela's Ashes" the story tells of "Terry's" abused childhood and action-packed career in the New Zealand Police during its transition from the hooligan days of the 1960's. Tasked with tackling Nelson's rapidly escalating bikie gang problem, Terry's family become targets as the local gang seeks to reduce the pressure placed on them by the one sergeant's special task force. This precipitates Terry's return to Australia where he and his family undergo considerable hardship as they seek to rebuild their lives. Ready to concede defeat and return to his beloved New Zealand, Terry suddenly finds himself accepted into the newly created Australian Protective Service (a former division of the Australian Federal Police)where he embarks upon a new career helping the APS establish itself as the body responsible for Australia's counter terrorist first response and airport security.
