The book is about a small group of war disabled veterans who are trying to rehabilitate themselves and restore their self-confidence while fulfilling an old dream that is common to each and every one of them: practicing the art of music, together as a band. Their injury shatters their dreams and changes their lives forever, a fact that cannot be argued with. The odds seem all against them and the physical limitations are not the only ones, but their will is strong. The return of music into their lifes encourages their recovery, and proves to them time after time that despite the injury hope is not lost, and there is still a zest for life.

This story emphasizes the challenges of dealing with disability and the importance of the support of those around them - family, friends and the community, and the potential of music as a means of mental healing. Through the story of the main character, Benny, the reader goes through a journey of heroism, of truth beyond despair and disappointment, a journey to resurrection. The story follows the power of love, of hope, of mutual giving and brave friendship thanks to which the main character heals and recovers in body and soul.

This is a story that touches each one of us.
