The Eagle's Child Inspired by one of Norway's most mysterious true stories, The Eagle's Child weaves fact and fiction into a haunting tale of nature, memory, and belief.
When young Sofie travels with her family to the remote island of Leka, she becomes fascinated by the local legend of Svanhild-a little girl who vanished in 1932 and was later found alive on a narrow mountain ledge, beneath a sea eagle's nest.
As Sofie listens to the stories carried by wind, stone, and sea, past and present begin to blur. Some truths cannot be explained. Some can only be felt.
Written for readers aged 10 and up, The Eagle's Child is a lyrical cross-over novel for children, young adults, and adults alike-an invitation to experience the wild beauty of Norway and the quiet power of storytelling.
Sofie discovers that some truths can only be felt, not proven, and that the magic of Leka is alive for those who dare to listen
