About this audiobook
In places of darkness, women will rise . . .
Iceland, 1910. In the middle of a severe storm two sisters—Freyja and Gudrun—rescue a mysterious, charismatic man from a shipwreck near their remote farm.
Sixty-five years later, a young woman—Sigga—is spending time with her grandmother when they learn a body has been discovered on a mountainside near Reykjavik, perfectly preserved in ice.
Moving between the turn of the twentieth century and the 1970s as a dark mystery is unravelled, The Swell is a spellbinding, beautifully atmospheric read, rich in Icelandic myth.
