Vertigo

Who is the man, Mark who is at the centre of its first book of the Crocodile Dreamings Series, ‘Visitor’. Now it is like he has come back from the dead to tell the story he wrote and hid for another to find years later.

It begins as a tale of a victim, bullied by others. But he soon learns to turn the tables and give back in double measure. It is a story built on bad choices. His search for vengeance destroys his life and that of others around him, leading to ever darker places and worse actions. And twinned with his soul is an ancient predatory crocodile being. As time goes by, it is less and less clear who is in control and making the decisions.

Alongside this is a person who is liked by many, does good things, who can be kind and decent.

Which part is real and is there any way forward from here? Can he maintain a balance between the dark part of his soul and the good – it is like standing above a cliff above an endless chasm, walking a tight rope across an abyss. Can he keep his balance as the world sways around him?

Read this story to begin a journey toward understanding Mark.
