In early 2017, Shane 'Kiwi' Martin was deported from Australia and told never to return; a decision he has been fighting ever since. Shane is married to an Australian and his children were born in Australia (one of them, notably, is AFL superstar Dustin Martin) and Shane has lived and worked in Australia since he was 20 years old.

In A Rebel in Exile, Shane tells his story: how he came to live, work, marry and raise children in Australia before being controversially thrown out of the country by the Australian government. He details his tough childhood and upbringing in small-town New Zealand, his decision to 'cross the ditch' and how he eventually joined one of Australia's notorious bikie gangs, the Rebels. While telling Shane's story, the book throws a spotlight on the Australian government's brutal tactics in expelling deported New Zealanders, often breaking up families.

Telling the true story behind the widely publicised headlines, A Rebel in Exile is a must read.
