Two British holiday makers decide to explore the site of an ancient Viking town that legend says was cursed by the God Odin himself when centuries before the towns people took up arms against a party of foreign missionaries trying to convert the locals to the new religion of Christianity. The Priests and Christian fighters came to a gory end at the hands of the heathens. Now in the modern age a similar fate waits in store for the two curious foreign visitors. The spirits of Odins' worshippers remain strong and alive in the barren waste!
Craig Douglas was born in Ely on a rainy, May morning in 1972, after a traumatic bus ride to the hospital. Since his conception he’s been what has been termed as a Pad’s Brat and travelled to Germany a couple of times to savour the taste of German Bier. He began writing at 14 when he wrote 2 page periodicals on the intrepid adventures of Conan the Stamp Collector. Somewhat disillusioned with village life he joined the British Army in 1990 and began a tumultuous, rather haphazard journey through Army life. Accruing memories and experiences along the way have helped him form the basis of many a short story. He has served in Northern Ireland, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo, Iraq, Cyprus and Afghanistan.
He currently lives in Rugby with his wife and two children.
