Council

After five years on the road. Helga has finally settled near King Eirik's court in Uppsala, where she's well-regarded as a healer. She's even in a relationship, of sorts.

But when King Eirik summons a King's Council, tempers begin to flare. The body of an unknown boy is found near the river. but with delegations from all over the country arriving and rumours of an imminent attack, there are more important things to attend to than the death of a nobody.

Only Helga suspects murder, until a second dead body makes it clear that someone is intent on breaking up the council - and that a traitor walks among them..
