About this listen
A powerful story of two families over three generations, from award-winning author Freya North.
In the 1960s, Florence, a pregnant 16-year-old, is banished to one of the remotest parts of the UK. Years later, Nell and Dougie are both at critical moments in their lives when their paths cross.
Sometimes who we are goes way beyond where we are from. What happened to Florence? Why is Dougie so reluctant to return home? How can Nell make peace with the lies she's been told?
As the lives of these three people collide and interweave, the search for truth uncovers long-kept secrets. Little Wing is a story about resilience, forgiveness and the true meaning of family, about finding one’s place in the world and discovering how we all belong somewhere and to someone.

Cuddle up on a sofa book
Freya North took me to Harris. I was there, on the beach, soaking up the landscape and appreciating the rich history. I knew the characters, felt their pain, their hopes, their fears and their love. Sofia Engstrand narrated this book perfectly and I hung on her every word. Thank you.

Sadness
I kept on thinking it was the end and it kept going. Lovely written but too long and slow paced for my taste. Lovely setting and descriptions of Harris

Beautiful uplifting story
I really enjoyed this audible book. I loved the story and the fact it was built upon the real life Outer Hebrides’ District Nurses. I felt engaged with and rooting for the characters. The landscape was a beautiful background. Thank you Freya! It has been lovely companion to my dog walks. Jo

Fabulous!
The characters, the setting, the words used to describe each, drew me into this book so much that I could not stop listening. The narrator could not have been more perfect either. A must read. Soft and bewitching.

Beautiful narration and accents were sympathetic to an regions
A beautiful captivating novel. The storyline and characters are written so expertly. There is a true sense of place throughout the novel, especially in the authors beloved Harris. The depictions of the wild and spellbinding landscape conjure up a true sense of life on the island then and now.
The way Freya North presents the subjects of grief, loss and homecoming was profound.
She writes from a point of knowing the human condition deeply and the nuances of such complex emotion. A profound and compelling read. I implore you to pick up Little Wing. There truly is something magical in this novel. Booking my crossing to Harris asap.
