Intrigue, danger and romance in Australia's tropical far north.
Above the crystal waters of North Queensland, Captain Morgan Pentland patrols the vast Australian coastline. When Customs Agent Rafe Daniels joins her crew, she is immediately suspicious. What is he doing around her plane when she isn t there? And why is he asking so many questions?
What Morgan doesn t know is that Rafe has her under surveillance. Critical information about their Border Watch operations is being leaked and she is the main suspect, but when Morgan and Rafe are shot down in a tragic midair attack, they realise they have to start working together and quickly. One of Australia s most loved icons is the next target and they have only nine days to stop it.
Will they uncover details of the plot in time, or will the tension that is growing between them jeopardise everything?
Wings of Fear, and Helene Young's second novel, Shattered Sky, have both been awarded the Romantic Book of the Year by Romance Writers of Australia.
