Six years after The Half-Drowned King, Ragnvald Eysteinsson is now king of Sogn, but fighting battles for King Harald keeps him away from home, as he confronts treachery and navigates a political landscape that grows more dangerous. Ragnvald’s sister Svanhild has found the adventure she craves at the side of the rebel explorer Solvi Hunthiofsson, though not without a cost. She longs for a home where her quiet son can grow strong, and a place where she can put down roots, even as Solvi’s ambition draws him back to Norway’s battles again and keeps her divided from her brother.

Ragnvald has long held to his vision of King Harald as a golden wolf who will bring peace to Norway as its conqueror - even though he knows that Harald’s success will eventually mean his own doom. He is grateful to have his beloved sister, the fierce and independent Svanhild, once more at his side to help keep their kingdom secure. Free from the evil husband who used her, she is now one of Harald’s many wives.

Ragnvald Eysteinsson, the son and grandson of kings, grew up believing that he would one day take his dead father's place as chief of his family's lands. But, sailing home from a raiding trip to Ireland, the young warrior is betrayed and left for dead by men in the pay of his greedy stepfather, Olaf. Rescued by a fisherman, Ragnvald is determined to have revenge for his stepfather's betrayal, claim his birthright and the woman he loves, and rescue his beloved sister, Svanhild.

Since the death of Ragnvald Eysteinsson's father in battle, he has worked hard to protect his sister, Svanhild, and planned to inherit his family's land when he comes of age. But when the captain of his ship tries to kill him on the way home from a raiding excursion, he must confront his stepfather's betrayal and find a way to protect his birthright. It is no easy feat in Viking-age Norway, where a hundred petty rulers kill over parcels of land, and a prophesied high king is rising.

Mais obtenir justice n'est pas chose aisée en pays viking, où des centaines de petits rois se disputent un lambeau de territoire. Mais Ragnvald est courageux et déterminé. Quant à sa petite sœur, l'impétueuse Svanhild, elle serait capable de prendre les armes pour lui venir en aide. Jusqu'au jour où elle croise le chemin du beau Solvi, l'ennemi juré de son frère.

Pour tous les amateurs d'Outlander ou de Game of Thrones ! Ragnvald de Møre règne désormais sur le comté de Sogn.

Svanhild, sa soeur, mène quant à elle la vie aventureuse dont elle rêvait aux côtés de Solvi, ennemi juré de Ragnvald. Mais cette liberté à un prix.
