The Orkneyinga Murders
Thorfinn Sigurdsson, eleventh century Earl of the Isles of Orkney and the Scottish lands of Caithness, ruled over the restive North Sea lynch-pin of the Viking realm. Through the strong arm of his loyal lieutenant Ketil and the sharp-eyed insight of the widow Sigrid, that rule depended on both firm diplomacy and hard steel.
