BALLISTIC: The Very Strange Case of the Devil's Hands
*New Release News! My new book, ‘ No Angel!’ is here. It’s a devilishly-naughty romantic comedy with a hell of a difference! Check it out, together with all my other work, at rtgreen.net
This book...
“Witty, hilarious, clever plot that runs perfectly with the love story. I smiled, laughed, cried a little. Great characters, beautifully balanced book. RTG’s best to date.”
Meet RC and Fi, two interplanetary homicide detectives whose patch is a lot bigger than most police departments. Mismatched in almost every way possible, their relationship is as complicated as the cases they solve.
A native New-Yorker brought up the hard way, RC just about makes five-foot-two, says exactly what she thinks in her own unique style, has an inbuilt hatred for authority, loves cybergoth fashion, and would rather live in the 21st Century.
Fi grew up in Windsor, England, in a wealthy military family, is five-foot-eleven, speaks very properly, has a massive respect for authority, loves her uniform, and wishes it was the 23rd century, not the 22nd.
And yet somehow their relationship works... in more ways than one.
There’s a bit more to their partnership than just crime fighting. Much to RC’s delight and Fi’s dismay, they’ve well and truly broken the IPPD’s rule number one. It all began one fateful and life-changing day, when Fi was introduced to her new partner...
*Just so you know, ‘Ballistic’ does contain sexual content*

My wish is to take you on a journey to somewhere you’ve never been before. And on the way, make you smile, surprise you, and bring a tear or two to your eyes (good tears!) If I can do that, I’m a happy guy.
I’m an English author who doesn’t write regular. ‘Regular’ is fine, but it’s not what you’ll find on our journey. Vibrant, fast-paced plots wrap around the pleasure and pain of equally-vibrant love stories, woven together to bring you the unexpected and fire up your emotions!
I find it difficult to categorize my work into one genre… so I think I might have invented a new one! Fantasy-realism. Fantasy because… well, our journey is as much fantasy as anything, plus shades of the paranormal and some sci-fi. Realism because just about every destination you will visit can be googled! My work is grounded in real settings, but where things are not quite as normal as you might expect! And where, if I’ve done my job right, when you reach your final destination you will sit back and say, ‘Wow… that could have happened to me!’
So you won’t find werewolves existing in strange worlds filled with half-human, half-animal creatures. Many, many other authors are writing those kinds of stories. I prefer to make your journey a unique one… yes, you will meet weird and wonderful characters, some of whom will make you laugh, other who will fill the journey with horror and pure evil. Demons, angels, and the occasional alien will join you as you turn the pages… but so will many characters you can relate to; normal people thrown into abnormal situations.
So please come and join me, embrace the unexpected, and take a ride to places you never knew existed!

3.75/5 - Free Book on the author's website.
Fast paced, (a little too fast maybe?) witty, lesbian soap space opera.
I'm mostly disappointed because I was expecting a stand alone and I got a cliffhanger instead ! In true space opera fashion I'd say..

DNF. TW - Sexual assault played off as a "joke" within the first couple chapters without any self awareness.
