There is a Turkish island called Bozcaada in the Aegean Sea. Our story of a baby swallow takes place there. Her name is Eke. She has left the nest earlier than planned and got stuck in a narrow backstreet on the island. She is unable to fly. Her parents are with her and trying to persuade her to fly. Her brother is looking for her everywhere on the island. While they were thinking that the island was a heaven for them, they found themselves all of a sudden in big trouble.

We will see what’s happening to Eke throughout the book. Will she be able to fly to join her family? How about the island cats? Did they hear that there was a little bird in their reach? What are her parents doing to help her? How is she feeling?
