520 |a With a troubled homelife and problems fitting in at school, Robert Nobel dreams at night of flying away. He is bullied by rougher boys, among them the threatening Niker, while his parents appear to be splitting up. In his dreams, he soars in the sky, leaving his troubles behind him. When he reluctantly joins a project to work with the elderly residents in his local community, he meets crotchety Edith Sorrel. Edith, a strangely compelling old lady, insists he visits Chance House. Robert explores the mysterious, derelict building, and discovers that it has a tragic past: apparently, a boy once died there because he thought he could fly. The boy was Edith's son. As Robert confronts his school enemies and his fears, he fulfils another request from Edith, to make her a coat of feathers. Will his gift to her unlock the secret of the boy who died?
