Relda and the Runaway is an engaging and beautifully sensitive tale of how the course of a young person’s life can be changed in the blink of an emerald eye.

The story is an intriguing and emotional journey of a desperate runaway teenager, Micki, who fears that she will be placed into care following the death of her guardian grandmother.

A chance encounter with an old lady on a train proves to be life changing. Meet Relda just an eccentric, kind and remarkably energetic old lady. Or is she? Could she be an angel who only appears when she is needed?

A story of despair, of unlikely friendship, of tears, of laughter – but most of all hope.

Relda and the Runaway was released in April 2023.
