The eerie, compelling second novel from award-winning writer Evie Wyld. That morning, before the light came through, I found another sheep, mangled and bled out, her innards not yet crusting and the vapours rising from her like a steamed pudding. I had to shove my foot in Dog's face to stop him from taking a string of her away as a souvenir. At first the crows had been excited by the body, stalking around it, strutting and rasping, their beaks shining, but now they sat in the trees, flaring out their wings, drunk and singing together. Something is killing Jake Whyte's sheep. She's not sure if it's an animal, or the local kids, or something worse. But there's something making noises at night and making her deal with things she'd hoped were long buried. When a man arrives in the darkness, asking for shelter, against her instincts she lets him stay... Set between Australia and a remote English island, All the Birds, Singing is the story of one how one woman's present comes from a terrible past. It is the second novel from the award-winning author of After the Fire, A Still Small Voice. 'Wyld has a feel both for beauty and for the ugliness of inherited pain' -- New Yorker
