It's the summer of 1867, and Hanna Pak and Jill Masters have returned to the United States. They enter through the port of San Francisco during a time of great turmoil: the United States Army has declared martial law, prisoners are vanishing from the local jails, and even though it's the middle of August, a supernatural chill has enveloped the city.
Hanna and Jill become entangled with the glory-seeking Colonel Washburn, the widowed hotelier, Kerstin Demoff, and the operator of a local den of vice, Madam Lhong. As the two Bostonians investigate the mystery of the vanishing prisoners, a new player takes the field. Andi, an American Indian dressed in Viking armor, appears out of the ether to kill the city's men and shepherd them to Niflheim, where they are forced to serve in the army of her mother, the Nordic priestess, Helreginn!
Helreginn's motives are shrouded in mystery, but one inescapable truth shines through: the priestess has built an army of zombies, ghosts, and giant white worms for the expressed purpose of murdering Hanna Pak! But why does a witch she's never met want Hanna dead? And what secret does Helreginn keep from Andi about her daughter's true origin?
Caught between the machinations of the Nordic priestess and her warrior daughter on one side, and San Francisco's finest on the other, Hanna and Jill fight to save both the city and the soul of the American Valkyrie!
AMERICAN VALKYRIE is the fifth Gunfighter Gothic novel.
