On a remote island, Gudrun seeks out an old friend.
Lucy Catherine's Viking epic of love, revenge and faith inspired by the Icelandic sagas.
Gudrun, a young woman in 11th century Iceland, must forge her path through a world of unearthly beauty yet uncompromising harshness.
Iceland is now an occupied country, its people forced to convert to Christianity by rival Norse kingdoms. After many years away, with plans to overthrow the regime and rescue her daughter who is being brought up in the new faith, Gudrun once more sails into Icelandic waters.
