Experts travel to Norway to study the skeletal remains of centuries-old Viking ships and use their knowledge to construct the biggest Viking recreation ship ever.
The Trial of Trials
The ship has to deal with a series of challenges, both onshore and at sea, before reaching England. In England, new discoveries offer insights into the scope of Viking influence.

The builders race against time to get the ship ready for departure after their previous, nearly disastrous voyage. Despite all their problems, 4000 volunteers come to their aid after their struggles make the news.

The crew face the looming threat of icebergs and rough winds in a section of the ocean known as Iceberg Alley. Their challenges are only made worse by their miserable living conditions, which provide little respite from the peril they face.
To the Heart of America
The Draken looks to answer the question of whether Vikings could have made their way to North America as it heads towards New York City.

The Gilded Age
The American Gilded Age was a period of immense economic change, of huge fortunes made and lost, and the rise of disparity between old money and new.
Against this backdrop of change, the story begins in 1882 — introducing young Marian Brook, the orphaned daughter of a Union general, who moves into the New York City home of her thoroughly old money aunts Agnes van Rhijn and Ada Brook. Accompanied by Peggy Scott, an accomplished African-American woman, Marian inadvertently becomes enmeshed in a social war between one of her aunts, a scion of the old money set, and her stupendously rich neighbors, a ruthless railroad tycoon and his ambitious wife, George and Bertha Russell.
In this exciting new world that is on the brink of the modern age, will Marian follow the established rules of society, or forge her own path?
Black Doves

But when her lover Jason is assassinated, Helen's life is turned upside down, and only her old friend Sam Young can keep her safe. But Sam, a suave, champagne-drinking assassin, also has problems of his own. Out of the game, since his last job went wrong, he soon realizes his past is coming back to haunt him. Together, they set off on a mission that will lead them to uncover a vast, interconnected conspiracy. One that links the murky underworld of London to a looming geopolitical crisis — and leads them to question the cost of the moral choices they've made.
