A broken rock star. A chance encounter. A road to starting over. This is the dramatic conclusion of the bestselling Reluctant Pilgrim trilogy. Diego thought he had it all: money, fame, a life of luxury and a beautiful wife. Then, at the pinnacle of international stardom, his world comes crashing down when his wife suddenly leaves him. Desperate for answers, Diego meets Nessie, a high-spirited backpacker, and is presented with an opportunity to walk along the only road he has ever been happy on. This moving stand-alone story builds on Diego's Camino de Santiago journeys of the first two books in this trilogy, taking us on a deeply personal adventure that begins on the stage of a rock concert and ends with the discovery of a treasured flamenco guitar. Along the way, Diego manages to lose everything he ever thought he loved... but discover his true self and purpose in the process. With the Camino Portugués as the vivid backdrop we may recognise ourselves in the pilgrims Diego encounters on his journey, and the inner conflicts he must face and overcome. Diego's Guitar is a compelling story of one man's struggle to find himself in the remnants of a rock and roll career. If you love quirky characters, Spain and Portugal, and are curious about the mysterious Camino de Santiago pilgrimage, then you'll love the final instalment of the Reluctant Pilgrim series.You can learn more about Stephen R.

When Emma Carmichael announced to her colleagues that she was buying a Zastava - the Yugoslavian answer to an Italian Cinquecento - to travel across their Balkan peninsula, they laughed uproariously and warned her she would not get very far in such an archaic vehicle with no mechanical skills, and little understanding of the language.Undeterred, Emma set off on a 4,677 kilometre journey through the backroads, across the mountains, and along the coastlines of ten Balkan countries in her Zastava 750, determined to prove to her colleagues that the Balkan vintage car was made of sturdier stuff than they thought.Encountering border crossing bureaucracy, breakdowns and the Bosnian Army on manoeuvres, her car, affectionately named Tito, became an unlikely hero of the road and people were charmed by him wherever they went.Driving Tito is an honest and heartfelt tale of a woman travelling solo in a world known for its machismo. It is a bumpy ride at times, but Emma captures the true spirit of lone travel, expressing her moments of comedy, mishap and paranoia with descriptive ease as she takes us off the well-trodden track and into the heart of the Balkans.
