Fülszöveg – River of Shadows:
River of Shadows is an
adult dark fantasy romance based on Finnish mythology and the underworld of
Tuonela.
When 24-year old Hanna
Heikkinen’s estranged father dies, she reluctantly makes the trip to Northern
Finland for his funeral. Being in the enchanting land of ice and snow feels
miles away from Hanna’s busy life back in Los Angeles, especially under the
complicated circumstances.
But when Hanna discovers
that her father’s body is missing, that's when things really get weird. A
mysterious man, Rasmus, tells Hanna the truth: her father was a powerful shaman
who went into Tuonela, the Realm of the Dead, in order to barter for more life,
and has been held captive by Tuoni, the God of Death. The only way her father
can be freed is if she travels with Rasmus into the mythical underworld to
rescue him.
Willing to do anything to
have a second-chance with her father, Hanna accompanies Rasmus into the dark
and bloody realm, traveling via the River of Shadows, stalked by dangerous
creatures, monsters, and the living dead, until they finally come into the
haunted kingdom ruled by Death and his family.
Only for her to be
captured and held prisoner by the God of Death himself.
Turns out Death is
intrigued by Hanna’s beauty and fierceness and makes a bargain with her. If she
marries him, and spends an eternity in the Realm of the Dead as his wife, he'll
set her father free.
But even the most noble
sacrifices come with hidden costs, and Hanna’s might involve the most
unexpected of all things: her heart.
