LITTLE CLOUD
‘Little Cloud’ is Frankie and Elodie’s story.
*Watch the video trailer… it’s here on my author page, or see it on my website at rtgreen.net
At the age of twenty-five, Frankie MacFarlane is making a success of life, running the pub she owns with her brother Jake. But it hasn’t come easily. After an unfortunate incident when she was twelve, every one of her teenage years was spent institutionalized.
Frankie lives with paranoid schizophrenia. Having a purpose in life has helped, and most days are good days. But the symptoms of her illness never quite go away, and Frankie’s perception of things can sometimes be different to those of other people.
One day, at the height of the tourist season in Norfolk, something happens to challenge that perception, and the life she’s built for herself. A mysterious girl begins to visit the pub, and for a reason she can’t explain, Frankie is drawn to her. And the need to discover who she is and why she is there turns quickly into an obsession.
But in Frankie’s world, it’s not that simple. Her illness plays tricks with her mind. Now and again, she sees people who aren’t really there. Desperate to know if the girl is a figment or for real, Frankie embarks on what is for her a terrifying journey into the unknown… unaware the truth lurking around the corner is far more horrifying than even she could have imagined.
* Just so you know, ‘Little Cloud’ contains scenes of a sexual nature.

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!

Read this book on holiday. It's set in an area I know very well. The beginning had me interested from the first page so had to keep on reading.
The story evolves superbly and led me into an imaginable thread I simply could not put down.
Keeping you guessing, although, one or two bits I worked out -( I'm good like that)
A fabulous fantasy tail in good old Norfolk and would love to see if this author can come up with a sequel..
