Instead, she discovered her true calling as a volva-a Viking witch-serving a village founded in the Viking age by Norse settlers escaping some terrible enemy whose identity was lost to time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow she lives in the hidden town of Villmark full-time. But her Villmarker friend Kara, undergoing a high-risk pregnancy, needs Ingrid's help navigating the modern world. Or, at least, the slice of it represented by the world's largest inland port where ocean-going ships bring goods from around the world: Duluth, Minnesota. For someone whose life has always been confined to the protective bubble of her Viking-descending community, the city overwhelms. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut Kara and her husband, with the help of some of Ingrid's other friends, settle in to a cozy little apartment in a historic building close to the clinic and the hospital. A few months away from all she knows just might be doable for Kara.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYet Ingrid worries. Because something strange keeps happening in the alley behind that building. The building, with its long history, is a haven for ghosts. But what Ingrid senses just might be more than a mere haunting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt might, in fact, be something more magical than that. Something that only she as a volva can face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cate Martin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1965167497\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781965167496\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ratatoskr Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/10\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 196\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.45d","brand":"Cate Martin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48154330169599,"sku":"9781965167496","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_23f4ffa1-197d-4f52-86cd-74a798d796dd.jpg?v=1770789431","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/snare-in-the-blind-alley-cate-martin-9781965167496","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
