The Mists of Time
About this audiobook
A rich and epic dual-time story, with a sweeping romance of soulmates across the ages from the Queen of Viking Romance, Christina Courtenay.
..........
Sweden, AD 908. Hedda, a young woman gifted with dangerous powers of prophecy, is forced towards a marriage she dreads. Ingemar, heir to a rival clan and sworn enemy to her people, should be the last man she would ever trust. But when he abducts her and saves her from a disastrous fate, Hedda is swept into a world of sea voyages, treachery and ancient magic.
As they journey across the Baltic’s wild waters, a fierce and forbidden passion flares between them. Yet dark forces are gathering. Kings plot against kings, loyalties are tested, and betrayal lurks closer than either of them knows. With enemies on every side, Hedda and Ingemar must fight not only for their love, but for their very survival.
More than a thousand years later, in the mist-veiled town of Sigtuna, echoes of Hedda and Ingemar’s story begin to stir once more. For some loves are too powerful to be bound by time – and some destinies will not rest until the cycle is complete.

About the author
Christina Courtenay is an award-winning author of historical romance and time slip (dual time) stories. She started writing so that she could be a stay-at-home mum to her two daughters, but didn't get published until daughter number one left home aged twenty-one, so that didn't quite go to plan! Since then, however, she's made up for it by having eleven novels published and winning the RNA's Romantic Novel of the Year Award for Best Historical Romantic Novel twice with Highland Storms (2012) and The Gilded Fan (2014), and once for Best Fantasy Romantic Novel with Echoes of the Runes (2021).
Christina is half Swedish and grew up in that country. She has also lived in Japan and Switzerland, but is now based in Herefordshire, close to the Welsh border. She's a keen amateur genealogist and loves history and archaeology (the armchair variety).
