If you love historical fiction, this novel will seize your imagination from the very first page. In the eleventh century, a Viking longship, swept from the misty shores of Markland, finds itself drawn to the vibrant heart of Mayan civilization on the Yucatan Peninsula. There, Bjarni, by marrying the daughter of a tribal chief, uncovers whispers of a hidden treasure nestled within the ruins of an ancient temple.
Years later, as Bjarni sets sail for Greenland, fate intervenes, and his ship is lost beneath unforgiving Arctic waters. Yet, before vanishing, he leaves behind cryptic runic inscriptions, hinting not only at the riches of the Maya but also at a mysterious city of pale-skinned explorers hidden in the far north-where legends speak of Thule, a place sought even by clairvoyants entangled with the dark currents of Nazism.
In the present day, a dedicated group of researchers from a cutting-edge virtual society embarks on a quest to unravel Bjarni's enigmatic legacy. Their path, however, is fraught with peril. On one side, they confront a clandestine faction bent on resurrecting a Thousand Year Reich, wielding sinister power. On the other, they battle ruthless plunderers of cultural heritage, determined to exploit the past for profit.
