"The third volume of Olav Audunssn̜ finds Olav heartbroken by loss and further estranged from his son. Set in a time and place where royalty and religion vie for power, and bloodlines and loyalties are law, Crossroads summons a powerful picture of Northern life in medieval times--a moving re-creation of a vanished world tainted by bloodshed and haunted by sin and retribution."--
