The Rune Stone by Julia Ibbotson
For fans of Barbara Erskine, Pamela Hartshorne, Susanna Kearsley, Christina Courtenay.When Dr Viv DuLac, medievalist and academic, finds a mysterious runic inscription on a Rune Stone in the graveyard of her husband's village church, she unwittingly sets off a chain of circumstances that disturb their quiet lives in ways she never expected. She, once again, feels the echoes of the past resonate through time and into the present. Can she unlock the secrets of the runes in the life of the 6th century Lady Vivianne and in Viv's own life? Again, lives of the past and present intertwine alarmingly as Viv desperately tries to save them both, without changing the course of history.
