Ubba Ragnarsson is enjoying his retirement in the Yorkshire countryside. He'd happily settle down on the farm and wait to see what the gods have in store for his children. But it would seem that others have plans that might threaten his hard earned peace and tranquillity. His daughter Freya is eager to know just what the gods hold in store for her. If she doesn't find out soon, she might be tempted to create her own destiny. But going against the path the gods have set for you is fraught with danger... Sigtryggr is keen to become King of Jorvik, and Halfdan intends to invade Durham.

It looks like the time for resting is over! The Ragnarssons are loading the longboats, and this time it's for a social visit.

Autorenporträt
Gina Dale is an historical and romantic fiction author. Her works include Viking Wolf, set during the Viking command of Yorkshire in the late 9th and early 10th centuries - when its rolling hills were rife with kidnapping, killing and infighting and fierce shieldmaidens would do anything to protect their families. She was inspired to write about the Vikings in Yorkshire following an ancestry DNA test which revealed she had nearly 10% Scandinavian heritage and 84% pure Yorkshire. She is also the creator of the Brushstrokes historical fiction trilogy (Brushstrokes, Darkness Falls and Drama Unfolds) which is based on the life of Carolus-Duran, a celebrated late 19th century artist who was a contemporary of Monet, Manet and Renoir and teacher to John Singer Sargent. The first two novels tell of Carolus-Duran's courtship and marriage to the beautiful and aristocratic Marie, followed by their joy from the birth of their first daughter and their despair during the Franco-Prussian war. Drama Unfolds follows the life of Carolus-Duran's eldest daughter as she embarks on one of the greatest adventures of her life whilst navigating the social rules of late 19th century Europe. Gina Dale lives in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire. The author has her own website www.ginadalepublishing.com where further information may be obtained.
