When a terrible Viking warband arrive upon the island, shrouded by an otherworldly fog and hellbent upon horror, Hilde and Cormac’s worlds are turned upside down. They bring with them terrors and secrets, the likes of which a Norse girl and a Pictish boy could never have dreamt of in their worst nightmares. For when the Harrowed Men come raiding, there is no escape from their cruelty – or their hunger. And no amount of blood will slake their thirst …
