Their blood and the runes. The end, just like the beginning. Pétur thrives in a world of money and power, where businessmen profit and politicians pretend to be honest. He is prepared to remove anyone who stands in his way. Even the prime minister. Nothing can stop him. Except the nightmares. Nightmares that stretch across a thousand years of Icelandic history. The same woman. The same love. The same death, repeating.
When a photograph of her appears in the real world, Pétur understands that the past is not gone. It is waiting. As the boundary between reality and nightmare begins to dissolve, a murder in his office forces him to confront an old abandoned house. And a darkness that has followed him for centuries. A story of love and power. Of revenge that becomes empire. And of what happens when a man tries to control his fate, and loses himself instead.
