Il falco delle nevi - The Snow Falcon, by Stuart Harrison (1999, UK)

Michael once shot his wife's lover. He was out of mind, then, after a few years in jail, he got back to the village where he grew up, despite people's hostility, to discover his dead father. Cully is a falcon who, once shot by a hunter, gets her chance to live thanks to Michael. Jamie's father died a few years before and he's never spoken anymore since then. Their lives are linked, their chances to live again come together. Deep and fascinating.
