Reseña del editor:

Recurring rumours of attacks by a giant raptor lead Greg Muir to seek the truth behind the bird's existence. Is it big enough to bring down a light plane? Can it carry away human beings in its talons? Is it responsible for the mutilation of a hang-glider?

A quest for a creature as fearful as it is elusive . . . Is the story of the huge bird only a myth, or is it reality? And if it is a reality, what part will it play in shaping the lives of those who search for it?

Blue Feather is a stunningly crafted mystery from one of Australia's most awarded writers, Gary Crew.

'A beautifully crafted novel . . . Fully satisfying.' Herald Sun
