Synopsis

When grocery store manager Reese Mantle's eight-year-old daughter, Kylee, receives a vision from God, he is not sure what to expect. When she begins to prophesy and becomes one of the fastest middle-distance runners in the world, he finds himself entangled in the middle of a battle between good and evil.

As Reese learns to accept his daughter's gift, he is confronted with a new revelation. A clandestine organization (Nero's Guard), that has survived nearly 2000 years and is dedicated to the destruction of Christianity, is determined to use Kylee to retrieve an ancient artifact that threatens to expose their group and their leadership.

Enter FBI Agent Kalik Taurus, a man determined to bring Nero's Guard crashing down. And the saga takes a roller coaster ride from the plains of the Midwest, to the City of Angels, and concludes with a clash on the streets of New York City between the oldest and wisest warriors in the universe.

REVIEWS of THE RUNNING GIRL

Spiritually intense and moving novel! Besides Shane Johnson, this is the first Christian author I have read that I have been impressed with. The story was well-written and moving, having a largely spiritual focus. Many issues we deal with in our modern culture were addressed from a Biblical viewpoint. By Blood Revenant

The Running Girl by Dan Blankenship is an intriguing book with an intriguing premise. What would you do if your young daughter told you that God had talked to her and told her that she needed to race? Lillian K. Duncan - Author of SHATTERED

Wow, what a powerful story, and I personally know the author. The book was soo good, I laughed, I cried, I was convicted, encouraged, and inspired. I couldn't put the book down, I read it all one Sunday afternoon! Dr. Stanley Harris, Harrisburg, PA

Intense and masterful! This work is thought-provoking and faith-strengthening! I look forward to reading more of Blankenship's work. I would like nothing more than to see "The Running Girl" come to the big screen. . . it's time! Elisha M. Hawthorne

This well-written book is a real page-turner! It was hard to put it down! So realistic, as if this spiritual encounter could happen to any of us. The description of the spiritual warfare captivatingly draws the reader in. Susan Leonard

The Running Girl is the classic struggle between good and evil in the tradition of J.R.R. Tolkein. Dan Blankenship's characters aren't hobbits and dwarfs, however, nor does his book weigh as much as Tolkein's trilogy, but the battle between good and evil is there nonetheless. William P. Shurkey "Shieldbearer", Greenville, SC

This book was great to read and taught some great life values. It was suspensful and fun. I felt as if I was there watching the race and events myself! I would recommend this book to anyone who can read! I can't wait till I get all of my friends to read it! Michelle Brown, Sauk Village, IL USA

A fantastic book. The Running Girl is tense, exciting, warming, intruiging and highly enjoyable. Mr Blankenship's wonderful observation of human speech, nature and idiosyncrasies have helped him to create believable characters that the reader can easily warm to and feel for. Liam Thatcher, England

Great book filled with everything you need for an edge of your seat read. The author does a fantastic job of making you care about the Mantle family in the book. You'll find yourself saying a prayer for them as they go through their adventure. William Staley, Savannah, Ga
