Greenland, AD 1000 More than her fiery hair marks FreydΓs as the daughter of Erik the Red; her hot temper and fierce pride are as formidable as her Viking fatherβs. And so, too, is her devotion to the great god Thor, which puts her at odds with those in powerβincluding her own brother, the zealous Leif Eriksson. Determined to forge her own path, she defies her familyβs fury and clings to her dream of sailing away to live on her own terms, with or without the support of her husband. New Hampshire, 2016 Like her Icelandic ancestors, history professor Emma Moretti is a passionate defender of Norse mythology. But in a small town steeped in traditional values, her cultural beliefs could jeopardize both her academic career and her congressman fatherβs reelection. Torn between public expectation and personal identity, family and faith, she must choose which to honor and which to abandon. In a dramatic, sweeping dual narrative that spans a millennium, two women struggle against communities determined to silence them, but neither FreydΓs nor Emma intends to give up without a fight.
