Are you too old to believe in elves? Ellie White thought she was...
"No matter your age, this beautiful, heartbreaking and heart-warming story will bring you tears of sadness and joy - in that order!"
Like all the best Christmas stories, 'Wisp' will tease your emotions. It could be described as a coming-of-age, triumph over adversity tale. It has been written to appeal to a wide age range, from early-teens upwards. But please note... the story does contain some scenes of extreme bullying.
Enjoy 'Wisp', and (if you were old enough in 1992) it may bring back a memory or two! This is the story -
Eleanor Parkin-White takes her son and daughter to an elves and pixies party. Sticking around a while, she watches the children playing. Then she sees someone she once new.
The blood freezes in her veins. It isn't him, but it might as well be. Identical in every way, she can't believe what she's seeing.
How could it be? And why now, after so long?
Unable to look away, as she watches him playing the memories come flooding back. Terrifying recollections of a time in her life she'd shut away, because it was just too awful to remember.
Eleanor is now the proud mum of two wonderful children; a confident, beautiful woman in total control of her life. It hadn't always been that way.
Once upon a time it was all very, very different....
It's December 1992, and Ellie White lives a life of hell. She hates Christmas, and she hates the snow even more.
She has good reason. A year ago, when she was just twelve years old, her parents left to go Christmas shopping. She never saw them again. Snow-covered winter roads caused a horrific accident, and they were gone forever.
That's just the half of it. Now she lives with her grandparents, and new things have come into her world. Like a grandfather who, unable to cope with the loss of his only daughter, takes his belt to Ellie at every opportunity. And girls at her school, who bully her and make her academic life a misery.
Then one day, in her darkest hour, an unexpected friend comes to call.
Far too old to believe in elves, Ellie White is about to get her mind changed on that one!

'Going Green' has taken on a new meaning, in the book world at least. Whilst we applaud the original meaning (ebooks are a perfect way to promote that) we also try to present a different angle to it.
The tendency these days is that if you don't look and read like everyone else, you don't sell books. Maybe there's some truth in that, but we simply don't do it. The RTG books have been described as a 'breath of fresh literary air', and, by those discovering us for the first time, 'unexpectedly good'. We know many readers prefer the same-old same old, and that's fine.
It's just not what you get from the RTG stable.
Those who know about such things said it would take five years to become a proficient author... I scoffed at that. They were wise. It took six. It's one reason why even today we remodel existing books, and will always do so. Right from the early years the stories were always good, but were put into words less well than they could have been!
These days we have several series and a few standalones, the hit Daisy series most popular amongst them. In everything we do, the same provisos apply
- Never the same book twice.
- If we can't think up a good story, it doesn't get written.
The RTG brand is about exciting and twisty plots, a fast pace which doesn't waste words, and endearing (sometimes slightly crazy) characters. We can never please everyone, but it works for us, and, it seems, for those who appreciate our work.
Enjoy! Richard, Ann and the RTG crew
