Archaic clues. A visionary killer. In this heart-stopping novel by the </strong><em><strong>Wall Street Journal</strong></em><strong> and Amazon Charts bestselling author of the Sydney Rose Parnell series, words can kill.</strong></p> <p>On the muddy banks of the Calumet River, a body has been found posed next to a series of mysterious glyphs and bearing wounds from a ritualistic slaying. Chicago detective Addie Bisset knows only one man who can decipher the message left by the killer: her friend Dr. Evan Wilding. A brilliant forensic semiotician, Evan decodes the etchings as Viking Age runes. They suggest either human sacrifice or righteous punishment. But to what god? And for what sins?</p> <p>Only one thing is clear from the disturbing runic riddles: there are more victims to come.</p> <p>As Evan races to determine the identity of the Viking Poet, he and Addie uncover the killer’s most terrifying secret yet: the motive. This startling discovery puts Evan’s life in mortal danger, and verse by ancient verse, time is running out.</p> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/gobookmart-review/message Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/gobookmart-review/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/gobookmart-review/support</a>
