The Blood Rune

By Mark Kleinschmidt

The Blood Rune: the heart-warming adventure of an ordinary teenager's extraordinary escape from domestic violence.

Ronan Ryan's world is thrown into turmoil when he steals a polished pebble and a leather notebook from his abusive stepfather.

A bullet to the back pitches him into the abyss. He awakes in another place and time, caught in a web of contradictions, untruths, deceptions and disbelief.

Can he untangle himself, determine reality, confront his nemesis, and protect his family from further danger?

And what does the Norse Goddess, Freyja, have to do with it?

The Blood Rune is a crossover novel, written for young adults, but with wide appeal to the adult audience. Ten percent of book profits goes to domestic violence charities.
