Category: Fiction

Olav Audunsson and Ingunn Steinfinnsdatter became lovers when they were barely beyond childhood and endured a long and bitter separation before they could wed. Now they are beginning what each hopes will be a new life--but in Ingunn's past lies the shame of an illegitimate child and in Olav's past lies murder. And the guilt they carry may prove more destructive of their happiness than all the years they spent as outcasts. --From publisher's description.
