The ultimate duo - Nina Wilde and Eddie Chase - return in their ninth action-packed adventure.

Secrets from the past emerge to threaten archaeologist Nina Wilde and her husband, former SAS soldier Eddie Chase, when a Viking runestone is stolen by a murderous gang of raiders.

The stone holds the key to an ancient evil concealed in one of Norse mythology's holiest places: Valhalla.

Travelling to Sweden, Eddie and Nina find themselves in a race against time to locate the legendary hall of the Viking warriors - before rival powers claim its deadly contents for themselves. It is a quest that will force Eddie to revisit a dark chapter from his mercenary days that he has kept hidden from everyone...including his wife.

Only Nina and Eddie can prevent the unleashing of a primordial terror from the depths of the Earth. But even if they succeed, will the cost be greater than either of them could have ever imagined....

A classic Chase and Wilde story, love the connection they share navigating through life and adventure. But this is really let down by the narrator. Seriously bad accents making it hard to tell characters apart and in some cases genuinely ruining the book. Please re record all the books this guy narrates in the series.

Decent story ruined by the narrator

I wanted to like this story as I have read other Andy McDermott books and enjoyed them but I found this story line a little tired and predictable. Also found it hard to warm to the central characters as they felt very formulaic. Performance by Gareth Armstrong was good though.

Predictable fiction

It was difficult to get used to the alternative narrator/performer (as others have mentioned). By no means bad but female voices must be very difficult and NINA reminded me of Mickey Mouse every time. I’m not 100% sold on her character realism and development this many books in.
The stories bring me back and this was exceptionally interesting. With the movement between time periods equally balanced and interesting. Eddie is a good protagonist. Unconventional …. A little. But what next…?

Top Story with more sense of jeopardy

But it was entertaining all the same and good for down time between heavy bouts of work.

Fast moving and a bit cheesy
