Scotland, 1980
Cathy Munro is not like the other girls in her small town. Inquisitive and full of spirit, she sets out on a mission to talk to God in the hope of securing her place in Heaven. So when the miracles she prays for start to happen, she’s sure she’s on the right track.

But then she notices her mother is acting strangely and avoiding her questions.

And why is everyone determined to stop her becoming friends with the boy next door? Could it be because he goes to a different school?
Cathy soon learns that her miracles have consequences, and that life isn’t as simple as she’d once thought.

Set in Scotland in the 1980s, Wings to Fly is a moving story about a young girl trying to find her place in a divided world.

"A very striking 'slice of urban life' novel, gritty and uncompromising."
