'That one will be the death of her father...Mark my words, the death of him.'

So says the prophecy that accompanies Fern's birth, forcing her mother to give her up for adoption - 'to keep her safe.'

Twenty years later Fern is haunted by the feeling that something is very wrong. Her family and friends think she is losing her mind, but Fern is convinced she's being followed. Is her father - whom she has never met - behind this? And what is his true identity?

In her attempts to unlock the mystery she meets two unlikely allies: Cassie, a woman cursed with the gift of prophecy, and Adam, an ex-soldier tormented by his past. As danger looms, Fern and Adam embark on an adventure which takes them from inner-city Sydney, to the labyrinthine depths of the Tasmanian wilderness, where Fern must finally confront her demons.

Interwoven with myth and metaphor, Flight is a compelling and original story; sometimes eerie, sometimes earthy, always spellbinding.
