Blood paints the ice of the North Atlantic, but for young Thorfinn, the only red that matters is the spray from the man who stole his father’s life. Growing up on the legendary tales of Leif Ericson, Thorfinn once dreamed of a paradise called Vinland, a mythical land to the west where war and slavery are forgotten shadows. Those dreams were shattered the moment the mercenary leader Askeladd executed his father, the Great Troll of Jom, forcing the boy into a life of cold-blooded slaughter. Now, Thorfinn is a terrifying shadow on the battlefield, serving the very monster he has sworn to kill just to earn the right to a fair duel. He isn't fighting for the Danish crown or the glory of Valhalla; he is a hollowed-out shell of a son fueled entirely by a venomous need for revenge that threatens to consume what little humanity he has left. As he navigates the cutthroat politics of the Viking invasion of England and the rise of a fragile prince, Thorfinn must decide if he can ever wash the blood from his hands to find the peace his father died for. This is a visceral, haunting epic that deconstructs the soul of a warrior, proving that the hardest battle isn't fought with a blade, but within the heart of a man who has lost everything.
