What happens when the goddess of seduction and love finds herself on the losing end of a romance...to a human no less? She packs up, summons her carriage, and sets off to unravel a mystery which has intrigued her for eons.
Where are the deities of this realm? Have they fallen to their doom, never to be revived?
Freya's odyssey takes her to far-flung temples, ancient ruins, and bustling cities, but she is no closer to resolving the riddle, until she arrives in Dublin. In a land where myth and legend are interwoven with everyday life, Freya teeters on the brink of achieving her goal and her happily ever after, only to flee to the very couple who triggered her quest.
An unexpected discovery spurs a repeat performance but, this time, Freya no longer cares about the answer. As far as she is concerned, every last god deserves to be consigned to oblivion.
All she wants is to find peace.
Once again, it hovers... tantalisingly close.
Only to be snatched away...
...for Freya's fate is inextricably linked to the one person she is determined to avoid and, to ignore the not-so-subtle summons for help will lead to tragedy.
Some deities have not vanished, some prowl on the periphery preparing to pounce and, as ever when gods interfere in the lives of mortals, chaos ensues.
It will take more than a touch of arcane alchemy to avert the looming catastrophe.
