Hell Runner

by N.D. Thompson

Hell's minions have spent years trying to capture Gabriel Flynn, but now they need his help.

Abandoned as a baby, raised by a priest, Gabriel Flynn can pass through the gateway to hell – an ability he uses to liberate souls from the underworld. And his reputation for being a supernatural Scarlet Pimpernel has not gone unnoticed by the forces of darkness, earning him the moniker of The Hell Runner. Gabriel is a wanted man with a sizeable bounty on his head, but now Hell’s minions need him to work for them. The soul of a heinous serial killer, known as The Dark Man, has escaped Hell, and when it comes to apprehending this escapee, there's only one man for the job... The Hell Runner.

For Gabriel Flynn, going to Hell and back is all in a day's work.
