About the book
Immerse yourself in an electrifying and action-packed story of exploration in the realm of the Hengest and Horsa series, where the clash between ancient deities and modern beliefs leads to a brutal clash.
In the 5th century Denmark, a solitary fighter named Aelfnoth stumbles upon an abandoned village, its streets filled with corpses and a mysterious pendant amidst the carnage. His path crosses with Groa, a young woman fleeing to the north with her infant, the sole witness to the tragedy.
Joining forces, Aelfnoth and Groa are relentlessly pursued by ruthless marauders, forcing them to take drastic measures to evade capture. However, Aelfnoth senses deception and is determined to uncover the sinister secrets shrouding the fate of Groa's kin.
