When her jarl is poisoned at his own feast, a thrall woman volunteers to die on his pyre, so she can use the nine sacred days before the burning to unmask whoever forced her sister onto the same fire eight winters ago. But the heir who guards her door is the man who delivered her sister’s death sentence, a draugr is clawing out of the hill above the hall, and if the ship doesn’t burn before the fjord freezes, the faith says the endless winter returns.
