An unconventional path. A lifelong quest.

Ruediger Schache studied business administration and psychology and worked for many years as a manager in an international company. Seen from outside, the path was clearly laid out.

Then he left it all behind and travelled the world for several years. His encounters with different cultures, philosophies and people became the foundation of his work as an author – and the conviction that the great questions are the same everywhere, only told differently.

Today his books – non-fiction and novels alike – inspire readers in 26 languages to think more deeply, to feel more fully and to live more consciously. Together with Nicole Diana he runs a centre for coaching, further education and natural healing south of Munich.

Non-fiction is about clarity: about the patterns that steer us, and about ways of recognising them. The Secret of the Heart Magnet became an international bestseller and appeared in English as Your Magnetic Heart.

The novels are about the same thing, taking the other road. A story can make something felt that non-fiction can only explain. That reaches from the corporate-conspiracy thriller The Sydney System through the journey to Sweetwater to Winston Flash.
