Following on from Tough Love, Peter Lyndon-James offers a darker, grittier and more detailed insight into his past in his second book, Driven by Pain, Changed by Grace.
With the same disarming, plain-spoken honesty, Peter leaves no stone unturned in relating his experiences with drugs, crime, violence, suicide and sexual abuse in a dark narrative that is painful to read, yet impossible to put down. From his early childhood, Peter recounts a heart-breaking tale of abandonment, neglect and abuse that would forge the broken sense of self that drove his drug addiction and criminal lifestyle for years to come.
Peter entered adulthood as a volatile, violent man intent on a destructive path that would lead him and his wife Amanda on a nomadic crime-spree across Australia, barely a step ahead of the law.
Despite the dark world he inhabited, a series of inexplicable incidents opened Peter''s heart to something that would ultimately lead him to become one of Australia''s most effective healers of men and families broken by life-controlling addiction. As founder and CEO of Australia''s largest and strictest rehab, Peter''s life has transformed beyond recognition, in effect changing the lives of countless others as he continues his quest to serve a greater purpose.

In our community and nation we have an epidemic on our hands. There''s a unique drug on the streets now that''s destroying families at a rate like no drug has ever done before.
Meth (Ice) not only binds a person up in addiction, but it changes. The way they speak, the way they act and the way they treat those around them.
Peter Lyndon-James helps people break free from life-controlling issues such as meth and other drugs, bringing them to the point where they want to change and make the decision to turn their life around so badly, that they will finally stop taking drugs.
"Tough Love" is designed to equip you and your family on how to successfully handle a person on drugs. While primarily focused on meth, the principles in "Tough Love" apply across the board for all forms of addiction, helping you on what to do and how to handle the challenges ahead.

Peter''s third book, How to Build a Rehab, offers a detailed insight into the steps he took to create a self-funded, holistic rehabilitation centre from the ground up. Utilizing 26-years of experience as a criminal, ward of the state and prisoner, Peter intimately explores the mechanics of rehabilitating a person that suffers from addiction and faces a community and institutions that rely on an earnest, but outdated approach to a problem that is only getting worse.
With his unapologetic approach, Peter deconstructs the decade long process through which he built the largest, self-funded rehab in the country. Free from the traditional mindset, the construction of the Shalom House method shows how valuable a new set of eyes can be on an old problem.
Along with anecdotes of Peter''s life as a criminal, drug dealer and prisoner, How to Build a Rehab sheds light on the inner workings of Shalom House. Peter lays out a literal manual for building a successful, inclusive and self-funded rehabilitation centre that navigates issues of debt, family dysfunction and self-discipline in the life of a resident in a holistic way. As Peter can often be heard to say; methamphetamine is the evilest drug to ever hit the planet.
With the meth epidemic in Australia showing no signs of abating, Peter''s insight into an alternative approach to rehabilitation is a ''must read'' for anyone suffering from the impacts of addiction - and certainly an important book for anyone looking for positive change in the way things have always been done.
