He works at the library, supports Stoke City football team, and cares for the twelve beautiful racing pigeons he inherited from his father in his spare time. He isn't into kink. He definitely isn't into feathers, in spite of the birds. So when a mysterious young man appears in his home claiming to be a pigeon, it's all a bit much. Avery is eccentric, perching on the furniture, refusing to eat eggs and stealing Derek's chocolate digestive biscuits when his back is turned. He's also attractive, kind, mischievous, and a dab hand with a feather, and Derek finds himself falling madly in love. But when he discovers the truth about Avery, it causes him to question everything he thought he knew about himself. And when those doubts take him to a very dark place, it's up to a library book, his own innate decency, and Avery himself, to make things right again. This sweet, angsty romance is a contemporary, tongue-in-cheek take on the old northern European Swan Maiden fairy tale.
