Since the day I was born, my whole life has been decided for me. I’m nothing but a Saxon bargaining token, a political tool for my father. The Norsemen invaded our lands and burned villages to the ground, killing men, women and children alike. My hand in marriage was an exchange for peace. However, the seemingly impossible choice of who to wed is mine to make. As my heart is torn between two men, an onset of attacks tear the village apart, causing discord and chaos amongst the ranks of those in power. To secure my safety amongst their people, I must make my choice. Will it be the charming, but dangerous warrior? Or the serious and loyal son of the Jarl? My life is turned upside down as my past and my future worlds collide.

No one speaks about the battle of Doncaster. Everything fell apart and the impossibility of repairing what’s been broken continues to haunt us. Especially after losing Elwyna, everything seems hopeless. Trygve and I prepare for another war that looms on the horizon, spreading throughout Mercia and now Wessex, despite King Edmund’s attempts at peace. A third threat hails from East Anglia, in Wales, where a witch named The Dark One has been spreading chaos. Rumors of her powers have devoured the four kingdoms in fear. When our peace depends on finding the Dark One and bringing her to clear the curse put on King Edmund’s wife by another, we find that more than one thing bonds us all together. Will King Edmund be able to create peace in a land that is destined for massacre? Will the identity of the Dark One finally be revealed?
