Hope and Destiny -- Niklas Natt Och Dag, Paperback

The author of the "thrilling, unnerving, clever, and beautiful" (Fredrik Backman) Wolf and the Watchman series presents a new historical series that takes us to medieval Sweden to unravel one of the country's most infamous murder mysteries.

1434: The unified kingdoms of northern Europe are cracking at their seams as a peasant rebellion, led by the charismatic figure Engelbrekt Engelbrekts, erupts in the north. Sent by his family to find a foothold in this rising revolutionary movement is young Magnus Bengtsson, who must win Engelbrekt's trust and favor no matter the cost. Back at Magnus's family castle, his mother, father, and sister wait for news of his success. One is lost in longing, another is forging his own plan for the throne and crown, and one is looking for the opportunity to rise from her brother's shadow.
