Gritty murders full of symbolism. Viking lore and ruins. An academic and a detective hot on the killer's trail.
This was a smart book that read like watching a movie and kept me guessing until the end! The characters were great, well developed, perfectly flawed, and interesting. The plot was enthralling, and the Viking history, semiotics, and lore were fascinating! This is the first in a brilliant new series that is sure to be a success!
