Charming, beautiful, intelligent, deadly; this is Eva Henrik. Left on a doorstep as a baby, she was raised in Moscow, Russia by a man who turned out to be more than just a single dad. Eric Draven is the second in command of a Russian mob, where Eva was raised and trained all her life. At only twenty-three years old, Eva has become one of Russia’s most sought after assassins for her ability to track down enemies in an almost unnatural way.
Meanwhile, on Asgard, something is approaching, and approaching fast. War. The Dark Elves are preparing their invasion, led by Malekith and Algrim, who are out to destroy Asgard once and for all. Odin’s army is strong and trained by the best, but they lack something. Something that Eva has.
Eva lives for the hunt, it’s all she knows. But when Heimdall sets his watchful gaze on her, Eva’s life is turned upside down. Now she’s in the most dangerous and compromising position she has ever been thrown into, and for once, she fears for her life.
Inga Andersson is the envy of every girl in Asgard. On the surface she has it all -- great friends, a job as Odin's personal fight choreographer, and a happy ever after with her realm's hottest assassin. But when evil invades Asgard, her perfect world comes crashing down. Someone is planning to kill off the gods, and Inga's best friend Ull is first on their list. With the Norse apocalypse a nanosecond away, Inga has to decide how she'll spend her final moments of freedom. Because from the moment this battle begins, Inga's happily ever after will be nothing more than a memory.
Some things are worth fighting for.
