The Ring of Mann

By David Thomas Kay

THE RING OF MANN

An intriguing psychological thriller of historical fiction, Nordic mythology, romance, mystery, and suspense. Set in the English Lake District of 17th century England, a 10th-century runic ring and a horse messenger of the gods invoke the spirit of a female Viking warrior, and an ancient prophecy comes to pass. Three young cousins are complicit in the disappearance of a woodcutter, and the superstitious villagers believe it is witchcraft. But the secret of the forest lays dormant, and Quaker persecution intensifies as the story races to an exciting climax.
