Northumbria, 866 AD
Edith still has much to learn about the art of ruling a kingdom, but
when her family is murdered, she's faced with the challenge of staying
alive.
As a young woman in Anglo-Saxon England, Edith finds it hard to be heard
above the Eldermen who are ripping the kingdom to pieces, but nothing
can prepare her for the arrival of the pirates and the Vikings. Torn
from her homeland and sold into slavery, she's determined to survive at
any cost.
Finding allies in the unexpected and enemies closer to home, Edith
clings to her dream of returning home one day to reclaim her throne and
to exact revenge on those who harmed her family.
