This is a story about a bird, a boy and his family. A family divided by secrets and silence. Joe Evans wants nothing to do with his Father's homing pigeons, but soon comes to realise that his fate is tied to that of one particular bird, Buster, his Father's favourite. When Joe's Father disappears from the battlefields of Europe and his Mother's life hangs by a thread, will Joe have what it takes to turn his War Pigeon into a Peace Dove?
