When it is discovered his daughter has leukaemia, his veteran mates band together as "The Dirty Dozen" behind a scheme to grow marijuana and convert it to "Hash Honey". With the assistance of Thommo's wife Wendy and a North Vietnamese veteran, the scheme is a success, and the money raised helps pay for a bone marrow transplant from a previously unknown part-aboriginal cousin found in the town of Daintree. The book ends with Thommo's daughter writing after her father's death about his life, last days and the 2000 ANZAC Day. {{Australia-stub}}{{VietnamWar-novel-stub}}{{2000s-hist-novel-stub}} 2 : 2001 novels|Novels by Bryce Courtenay |
