Eirik Stenson | Norse Hersir

A formidable Norse hersir, seasoned warrior and respected leader of an isolated island settlement off the coast of Ireland, circa 900 CE.

At 37, Eirik Stenson has survived battles, raids, treacherous seas and the burdens of leadership. Beneath his imposing appearance and guarded nature lies a fiercely loyal, intelligent man with dry humour, unexpected tenderness and a deep sense of honour.

He does not offer his trust easily, and earning his affection takes more than a pretty face. But once someone finds their way past his defences, they discover a man capable of extraordinary devotion.

In a world divided by culture, faith and conflict, an unexpected stranger may challenge everything Eirik believes he understands about belonging, loyalty and love.
