Threat from the North: A Viking Witch Cozy Mystery
About this ebook
Instead, she learned that her mother, like her grandmother before her, was born in a hidden village founded in the Viking age by Norse settlers long before the time of Columbus. Ingrid’s ancestress wove powerful magic to keep her people safe. And Ingrid wears the mantle of that responsibility now, in the modern age.
She is their volva. Their Viking witch.
But that mantle comes with more responsibility than merely maintaining spells. It means learning all she needs to know, but in half the time any of her ancestors took.
And frequently for Ingrid, it means investigating a murder. Or, in this strangely snowy October, a string of murders. Because when a killer employs magic, no one else stands a chance at stopping them before they strike again.
And something more than unseasonable weather seems to be blowing in from the North.
About the author
Cate Martin loves to mix mysteries and magic. And she does it a lot. Like in all three of her witch mystery novels series: The Witches Three Cozy Mysteries, The Viking Witch Cozy Mysteries and The Weal and Woe Bookshop Witch Mysteries. She also loves to mix mysteries and history. Whether that’s 1930s St. Paul, Minnesota like in her Dorothy Lundegaard P.I. short fiction series, or whether it’s ninth century Norway like in her Ljota and Kiallakr short fiction series. She even loves her mystery straight up, no chaser, like much of her fiction which has appeared in the quarterly magazine Mystery, Crime and Mayhem. And her alter ego Kate MacLeod has even been known to mix mystery with her science fiction. You can learn more about her work at CateMartin.com and at RatatoskrPressBooks.com.
