Description
A man lies under the tawny earth, hands still clutching the knife that killed him.
Thorfinn Sigurdarson, Earl of all Orkney and Caithness, has made a mistake, and he won’t let himself forget it. Now rumours have started in the Norse lands that he might be getting a second chance – but should he take it, when it means that dead men are walking?

The setting is Orkney in the Viking times, and on the day that Ketil Gummarson arrives, Sigrid, a widow, discovers a body. Probably dead for some months. On seeing the body Ketil knows who it is, but why was he killed. Where did the rumour start that the long dead Rognvald Brusason has come back from the dead to claim Orkney for his own.
Sigrid and Ketil investigate.
A very enjoyable, well-written historical mystery with its twists of plot, and with its very likeable and well-developed main characters.
I look forward to reading more in the series, of which this book is a very good start.
