The performance of a lifetime...toppled by a single word.
Witch.
In the blink of an eye, Liv's hard-fought life turned upside-down. Not only had she used her powers in the open and exposed her secret, she had done so in front of the king's own soldiers. No sooner had the dust settled, than she was arrested before the entire settlement and sentenced to death. Alone in a prison cell, she begins to think about where things went wrong...
The fabric of the realm might be slowly changing, but it was still ingrained in the heart of every Viking child, never to suffer a witch. The clock is ticking, but all hope isn't lost. Erik owes a heavy debt, and feels the weight of that burden.
Is it possible to escape the consequences of her actions? Even if she could run, would her chances be any better out in the wild? The executioner comes at dawn, and two people are considering opposite sides of the same question: When a life hangs in the balance... is it possible to walk away?
They say some people are favored by the gods. Others need to make their own luck.
