A warm, uplifting and funny debut novel about two feuding sisters perfect for readers of Sophie Kinsella, from the bestselling author of THE YEAR OF LIVING DANISHLY

Be bold. Be brave. Be Viking...

Forget hygge, this autumn you need to go Viking. An uplifting, laugh out loud debut novel to curl up with from the bestselling author of THE YEAR OF LIVING DANISHLY.
Frazzled mum Alice Ray likes to think she’s on top everything – she has FOUR bags-for-life in the boot of her car for heaven's sake. But after spectacularly embarrassing herself at work, she finally gives in to her sister’s pleas to take a much needed break.

But this is not the luxury spa holiday Alice hoped for – instead, she finds herself in Denmark, in the middle of nowhere, on a ‘How to be a Viking’ getaway.

Can the two sisters finally learn to get along or will learning to embrace their inner warrior just make them better at fighting?

Two sisters. One Scandi holiday they'll never forget...

KATIE FFORDE

She brought us Hygge, and now Helen Russell’s Gone Viking. I laughed out loud as wits-end dentist Alice is put through her norse paces. It’s time we all went a little Viking.
