The Sorrow Stone by Kári Gíslason
Set in medieval Iceland, this historical novel follows a mother who, after a desperate act to protect her child, flees across a harsh landscape and the North Atlantic world while clutching a talisman said to draw away grief. Pursued by vengeance and bound by the codes of honor and kinship, she seeks safety and a future for her son, whose later search for answers is shaped by rumor and saga. Blending suspense with an exploration of motherhood, exile, justice, and the making of legend, it gives voice to a woman largely silenced in the old stories.
