Malachite Eyes by Dan Wallace

Tom Weatherly made it big on the 1970s charts with his signature song Malachite Eyes. He lived the good life, money no object and occasional benefits from fulsome young fans. Respected as a rock'n roller, twenty years later he found himself to be a pop star in memory only. And he wanted more.Reviving his band the Weatherly Experience with his longtime pal Don, he found the young new players to be a handful. At the same time, he felt compelled to contribute to others in in need, both a matter of conscience and a good move for his comeback. While entertaining youngsters in Marbury House, a "safe haven for children," he met Norah Kealy, a career social worker, the likes of whom he'd never known before.Malachite Eyes unfolds the rip-roaring results of Tom's campaign to return to rock super stardom while chasing Norah despite her impression of him as a self-serving, career heartthrob. A rollicking romp full of both laughter and tears, Malachite Eyes celebrates a time not so long ago
