Publisher Description
Trust, belief and a little magic… then maybe they could both fly free
Since Trevor’s mum died his dad can barely look at him without yelling. Home is awful, school is worse. People just let you down, and Trevor only talks to Mrs. Bingo-Wings, his mum’s cat.
But then he meets Midge, a peregrine falcon in danger, and finds out he has a gift that could change his life forever.
Trevor is thrown into the heart of a magical adventure that could promise freedom – for Midge and for himself – but can he overcome his doubts and fears, and take on the destiny he’s only just discovered?
“Jo Clarke brings her exceptional knowledge of falcons and her amazing imagination and writing skills to this clever and captivating story.”
– Sean Derek, Emmy-winning writer (The Smurfs, Batman, Pac-Man)

– Larry Kasanoff, Film Producer (Mortal Kombat; Lego: The Adventures of Clutch Powers)
