Francia AD853
 After a failed Viking raid on the Frankish coast over 20-years-ago, Jarl Sven the Boar is forced to leave his only son, Torkel, as a hostage and warned never to raid Francia again or his son will die. 
 In Hügelburg, a small town in East Francia, Torkel and his 9-year-old son Charles are ambushed at home. 
 Before dying, Torkel thrusts a package into young Charles’s hands and tells him to flee Francia for Denmark in search of his grandfather Sven the Boar’s protection.
 But the man Charles eventually finds is not who he expects, and Charles must put his fate in the hands of a man betrayed by Odin. 
 Together they must uncover the significance of the package and why the Kings of Francia want Charles dead.

The Charlemagne's Cross Series

Odin's Betrayal: An action-packed historical adventure series from Donovan Cook

A king, old and frail. A challenger filled with vengeance. A kingdom's fate at stake.
Sven the Boar is Jarl of Ribe once more. He and Charles try to settle into their new lives, but trouble and treachery are never too far away.

Tormented by recent events, Charles struggles to adapt to life amongst the heathens that mock his Christian God and the arrival of a priest from the south only makes things worse.

Meanwhile, Sven is burdened with the responsibilities of being Jarl again and protecting his grandson from those hunting him.

When forced into an alliance with King Horik’s nephew who is raising an army to challenge his uncle for the throne of Denmark, Sven makes an important decision.

As the threat of war becomes real, Sven rides to fight a battle that will change the destiny of Denmark.

But whilst he fights, will Charles remain safe or are other games in play that threaten him?
