Wings Above the Mallee

Forced away from the outback she both loves and loathes, bush pilot Amelia Fraser has lost everything - except her compassion. Running from tragedy, she finds herself in Settlers Bridge, determined never to let anyone get close to her again. Widower Heath Brennan has channelled his grief into anger and self-recrimination. Haunted by the death of his wife, he is a recluse, grappling with anguish. Meanwhile, his nineteen-year-old daughter Charlee is battling her own demons. Once the perfect child, now her rage forms an impenetrable barrier between them. When Amelia and Heath meet within the treacherous cross-currents of grief and guilt, are they doomed to clip each other's wings and send themselves spiralling? Wings Above the Mallee is a poignant tale of loss, love and a turbulent journey towards redemption.
