In the frostbitten village of Hjall, twenty-year-old Hildr survives by wit, grit, and the mercy of strangers. Orphaned and forgotten, she clings to the ruins of her past-haunted by dreams of a blazing creature, a voice in the shadows, and a name not her own.
But Hildr is no ordinary girl. Beneath her quiet resilience stirs a buried power, as old as the the gods, and feared by a king who would see her silenced before she awakens.
When a mysterious stranger arrives in Hjall-cold-eyed, hidden in shadows, and sent to kill her-the lines between fate and feeling begin to blur. He knows what she is. What she might become. And yet... he cannot follow through.
As war stirs in the north and ancient beasts rise from slumber, Hildr must uncover the truth behind her bloodline, her dreams, and the rune-marked destiny that binds her to the boy who should be her enemy.
A story of forgotten gods, forged bonds, and a love that defies fate.

' there is a wolf in the mist, and the gods have lied. ' FOR CENTURIES, the settlement of Mistrheimr has stood at the threshold of the unknown, where mist never lifts and gods do not answer. Each year, the fog creeps closer, swallowing land, shadow and breath alike. The people whisper of beings in the dark, cursed creatures that should not be freed. When the gods, the Aesir, demand a sacrifice, they do not choose the golden daughter, Sólveig, nor the seer who speaks in riddles, Saga. They choose Sigrnótt - the unwanted, the nightborn. Cast into the mist, she expects death. But in the heart of the forgotten land, she finds a god in chains. Bound by the final vestiges of Gleipnir, the unbreakable fetters designed by the gods themselves, the great wolf Fenrir waits - for blood, for vengeance, for the end of the world. The Aesir had feared his hunger and in their fear, had buried him in fog, caging not only his body but memory of his name. But Sigrnótt remembers. And when she speaks it, the mist stirs, the chains tremble and the echoes of old prophecies begin to whisper once more.
