There's no escape from death when you're a Valkyrie.

After a long, fraught journey, Frankie landed safe with her family, but her challenges are just beginning. Constant training is taking a toll, and a quick trip to find a lost Valkyrie might be the confidence-booster she needs.

The mission turns out to be anything but simple. The missing Valkyrie is being guarded by Draugr, Hel's zombie soldiers. Frankie rescues her, but waiting at home is Freyja with even more bad news. The last remaining Valkyries are being hunted, and it's up to Frankie to save them.

She might be destined to lead the new generation of Valkyries into battle, but when more and more turn up dead, she wonders how her enemies know their every move. If she can't even protect the people she loves, how can she defeat the gods and prevent Ragnarök?
