The Snow Falcon
This is a new and revised version of the international bestselling novel first published in 2000, about a man trying to come to terms with a violent act that destroyed his life and his belief in himself.
When Michael Somers returns to the small town where he had a troubled upbringing, he is isolated and shunned. Through the unlikely catalysts of an injured falcon, and a derelict hardware store that once belonged to his father, Michael unwittingly becomes the focus for people who are struggling with their own lives. Pete Ellis is losing his wife, Rachel, and everything he does to try to rescue his marriage seems to backfire on him, while Susan, Michael’s neighbour, is trying to cope with her troubled son and her feelings for the town cop, who is in love with her. The harsh, but also beautiful snow-covered mountains of the Pacific Northwest where the story is set, reflects the characters themselves. They are neither all good nor all bad, but are capable of both.
This is a moving and thought provoking novel of love and redemption, and also of the weakness of human nature that can sometimes lead to bitterness and tragedy.
